Just two days ago I was talking to friend saying I thought the Chimaera stuff was gone, I have been waiting patiently since Speakeasy and Markosia and.....George said they would be coming but that was a while ago....(yes George I still want to have the books in my hands.

) Anyway glad to know that they actually seem to be coming for real this time....good to all involved!

Sincerely, a fan...

Glad to see they're still going ahead with this. ^_^

I'm even happier that they'll be opening the doors to creator-owned projects...

I had been wondering if the Hero Universe stuff was ever gonna see release. I remember the announcment that Arcania was gonna publish it but then nothing ever happened. The site hadnt been updated and George's message board presence was basically non-existant. I still wish Super Crazy TNT Blast (aka Twilight Men) would finally see the rest of its series released. Good luck, Chimaera!

Good to see a fine line of books making a come back!

With the kind of determination Mr. Singley has shown, he should make a good run as a publisher.

Good to see these are finally going to be hitting the market soon. I was wondering what happened to them after the initial announcement that they were teaming with Arcana a while back.

Good luck and its nice to see a comic company bringing more diverse stories and characters to the market. I hope with the power house moves the Ken Levin is making we will only have to wait a little while to see them hit big and small screens!
