(June 28, 2009) Welcome back for more updates from Midnight Horizon Comics and the gang at Highburn Studios. We just returned from Heroes con in Charlotte, NC last week and had a blast there.

The second issue of Tribulations is on the way with more great story and pencils by Lyle Pollard with the new addition of inks by Peter Palmiotti and is currently being flatted by Lyle with the first three pages already being sent to Mike Watkins to throw down some amazing colors. The new series of stories involving the cast of Tribulations, Nova City Stories is moving along quite well. We want to welcome Ryan Eldridge aboard as the writer of the book. He and Lyle have truly crafted a masterpiece in this story. Also in the world of the Guardians. Artist and creator Mike Watkins has recently tapped Todd Davis as the new scribe of the series, they are in the plotting stages now and should have a new volume with a new issue 1 out sometime during the beginnings of 2009.

(Oct. 2, 2008) We have all lately been talking about the future of both Highburn Studios and Midnight Horizon Comics, so we have fully merged to forgo any more confusion. All the books from here out will be published from Midnight Horizon except for Guardians which will stay with Dakuwaka Publishing. This will not change any of the books in terms of quality. The main reason is to focus Highburn as a studio in the comics field so that artists and writers here will be able to move around on projects as well as have a safe workhaven. The only major change will be Kenny is handling publishing books and I will be handling working with and training artists. That's all for now so until next time. -Michael

(AUG. 1, 2008) Welcome
back all of you comic book junkies. Kenny here with all of your Midnight
Horizon Comics updates. Things are picking up around here as we prepare to
go in a lot of new directions. Coming this Halloween, look for
the first of an ongoing annual Horror Anthology. That's right, look for
Horrific Tales Anthology this October with strange and eerie horror
installments from some rising talent in the comic world. The line up
includes Randy Parker, Lyle Pollard, Chris McJunkin, Ben Phillips, Mike
Watkins, John Anderson, Cary Kelly, Keith Dotson, Steve Likens, Bill
Cofflin, Kelly Williams, Maverick Comics, and yours truly... phew! There
is also a 12 page comic titled Cookies available which will be in the
anthology as well. So, to get a taste of what to expect from the
anthology just get a copy of Cookies to ease the wait. Also, Look for the conclusion to the Expulse min-series soon as we wrap things up with our carefree defender of Earth. I plan to take a breather from Expulse while I focus all of my energy on the new Slayer series. But fear not... Expulse will return with another exiting and mind blowing storyline in the future. As many of you may have heard, the Ruthless printing situation has been resolved and those of you who ordered Ruthless #0 from Dimestore Production should have gotten your book in the mail. I thank you all for supporting Ruthless and appreciate everyone's patience. Look for Ruthless to continue as a min-series with the same awesome creative team that grabbed the small press idol audience back in 2007. That is about it on the news front here. So until next time buy some books from us, stop by and comment on our forum and give us any feedback you want. See Ya!! -Kenny Keen (April 26, 2008) Welcome back to Midnight Horizon Comics.
