COSMIC TIMES MOVES INTO LIBRARIES ON A DIGITAL PLATFORM

Comic book publisher Cosmic Times continues to reach new audiences through their partnership with Flipster, a digital delivery service targeted at libraries and schools. Currently two of Cosmic Times most successful titles are available through the digital subscription service. Deep Space Tragedy the story of a teenage robot rock band on the run illustrated by Michael Wagganer and Sugar Boogarz an all ages action comedy written and illustrated by Michael Duron. Cosmic Times plans on releasing most of their back catalog through the service along with new titles they continue to publish.

“As the comic and graphic novel market continues to change, we have been looking for ways to reach new and younger readers,” said Cosmic Times publisher Martin Pierro “and we felt this partnership with Flipster would be a perfect way to accomplish that goal.” Flipster provides digital magazine subscriptions to libraries and schools, through their unique platform. Their system allows library patrons and students to access digital magazines, comics and graphic novels in the library or at home using their library card.

The Cosmic Times catalog of comic books and graphic novels continues to grow, with such titles as Giant Robot Warrior Maintenance Crew, Flesh of White, Chaser Platoon, Void of Heroes and many more. This wide array of titles continues to push forward the mission of Cosmic Times to bring unique concepts and ideas to the comic book market … always placing quality storytelling above all else.
