So something new and unique happened in the comic book industry, two of the leading independent comic book publishers; Chariot Comics & Meta Desi Presents, joined hands to form a unique imprint banner – ICBM comics.
But what does this mean? Have we merged? Are we one? Well yes and no…
What we’ve done is come together as one to publish together under the ICBM banner, and this allows us to be bigger and better; while keeping our individual titles, creative approaches and philosophies intact. This helps us work together, optimize, help each other out and even do crossovers (and everyone loves crossovers don’t they!).
In case you would like to read more, Akshay and I, we’ve explained a lot in the Animation express article, which you can read over here: <Article>
Now onto the juicy part! You’ve all been asking us about our release schedules, when the next VRICA or Ground Zero comes out etc. etc.. To answer all your questions here’s the launch schedule for Meta Desi and Chariot under ICBM Comics till early next year!
