Comics legend Chuck Dixon is a man of action. And in addition to writing more comic book pages than anyone else outside of Japan, he has also written a number of novels, including the Bad Times series. It has been both a pleasure and a professional learning experience working with him on Alt★Hero and Avalon, so we are very pleased to announce that Castalia House will be publishing nine of his books in paperback and audio editions this year.

And since we mentioned Avalon, we would be remiss if we didn’t give you a look at how the interior art for Avalon #1 is coming along. Needless to say, as befits his reputation, Chuck doesn’t waste any time before diving headlong into the action. We anticipate Avalon #1 being launched in both digital and print editions in March.
