JOHNNY CARONTE & THE REVOLVER
 Alias Enterprises has provided Newsarama with six preview pages from Johhny Caronte: Zombie Detective and The Revovler by Tony Sandoval. Two separate books, they are being collected into a single 64-page graphic novel and will be released this summer.
From Alias’ press release on the stories:
"One of the best things about both of these titles is that they have a really cool visual style," said Alias’ Sean Jordan. "JOHNNY CARONTE is done in a fun 'Day of the Dead' style, and it has a neat twist - all of its characters are zombies, and when they get killed (which can only be accomplished by a shot to the head), they grow skin and bleed. THE REVOLVER is about a girl named Monica who steals a gun capable of killing demons that also happens to belong to one of Hell's most powerful residents. But Monica has to learn to use the gun's unique powers quickly, because a special demon has been sent to kill her and retrieve the weapon."
Though neither title will be published on a monthly basis, added Jordan, ALIAS will continue to bring future chapters of both stories to American readers in a similar graphic novel format.
"We all got into this business because, ultimately, we love comics," Jordan concluded. "It's been a joy to be able to bring some of our favorite European titles over for American readers to enjoy, and we hope these titles will succeed well enough to allow us to bring more over in the future."
As if to illustrate this, ALIAS Comics publisher Brett Burner has devoted much of his personal time on this project, overseeing the project and the translation process to "make it really pop."
"I am personally very excited about the ALIAS edition of Johnny Caronte: Zombie Detective & The Revolver ," said Burner. "It looks great, and both stories are really fun. And of course, I'm looking forward to hearing the reader responses to this book!"
"And since we have a very vocal readership already," Burner added with a grin, "I'm sure we'll receive plenty of feedback when this book hits the shelf later this month."

I'm really psyched about this. The solicitation interested me enough to preorder this book. Now, with every sample page I see, I become more and more glad I did. It looks awesome.
Many of the things Alias is doing in its mere infancy have me pumped. I was glad to finally see the completion of the Soulcatcher project. I read Elsinore last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. I haven't yet read the 75-cent issues (I get my comics a week after they're released), but from a quick look-see, the quality and production values are top-notch. Cool stuff, with more on the way.

I see that it has not been mentioned to the creator and writer of the series JAIME R. COLLADO, which makes a work magnifies in this series, very advisable.

Alias Comics, publishers of such popular titles as SIXGUN SAMURAI, 10th MUSE, and LULLABY, have recently signed an exclusive distribution deal with Diamond Comic Distributors, Inc. that will not only supply comic shops with the publisher's titles, but also bookstores across the country!
"There were several reasons we signed with them," said Alias publisher, Brett Burner, "but mostly because the deal fits best with our model of a company. They're working hard for us, and are going to help push our trades into the book market."
Diamond will also be taking on the burden of order fulfillment, among other functions, and therefore less labor and warehousing space will be required on the part of Alias.
"This will help us focus on other, more important things," added Burner, "and that IS to the greatest benefit of our studios."
Another great advantage is that Diamond can help place Alias trades and graphic novels into bookstores everywhere, greatly expanding their exposure and sales. Currently, Diamond trade paperback and graphic novel solicitations for the book market run two months further out than the regular comics. As a result of this, Alias will push all currently expected releases of graphic novels and trades to coincide with bookstore releases over the summer of 2006 - beginning in May.
"It is a shame to have to do this with our October-December books, but it is a one-time setback whose result will be better overall sales for each title, therefore better circulation," said Burner.
Below is a tentative release schedule for when Alias TPBs and GNs could start appearing in bookstores everywhere.
( ** - available NOW in comic shops everywhere!)
