Valiant, Alien Books Partner on Publishing Venture

Valiant Entertainment and international comic publisher Alien Books are partnering to expand Valiant’s publishing reach. Alien Books and their Director Matias Timarchi have 25 years of experience publishing comics in the US and internationally.

“Being able to collaborate on the creation of new stories with Valiant, the third largest connected superhero universe, is truly a dream come true,” Timarchi said. “As a lifelong superhero fan and self-professed geek, the opportunity to work with these incredible characters fills me with boundless enthusiasm. Our goal is to expand the entire Valiant universe by crafting new books that will delight longtime fans while also innovating to engage a new generation of readers interested in webtoons, manga, and digital storytelling experiences. We are immensely proud that Valiant has selected us as their new partners for this thrilling venture, and we are excited to embark on a new chapter in Valiant’s illustrious history.”

“We remain fiercely committed to publishing Valiant comics and expanding our publishing line in ways we’ve never seen before. In partnership with Alien Books, we see an opportunity to push the boundaries of comic book publishing to help develop our incredible IP in exciting new ways for a rapidly expanding global audience,” Valiant’s President of Consumer Products, Promotions & Ad Sales Russ Brown said.

Valiant’s universe is shaping into a new world order in the current X-O Manowar Unconquered series and the upcoming Ninjak Superkillers, which is scheduled for the fall of 2023. The teams at Valiant and Alien Books will work together to shape Valiant’s publishing line, and more details will arrive soon for their 2024 publishing schedule.
