Longtime Dark Horse Comics Director of Publicity Jeremy Atkins announced on his Facebook page that he is leaving Dark Horse for a career in the world of craft beer, in the marketing team of Rogue Ales, after this weekend’s Rose City Comic Con.  Atkins has been with the company for ten years, including over seven in his current position (see "Jeremy Atkins Named Director of Publicity"). 

Atkins said Dark Horse was "...where I have learned so much, made lifelong friends and been lucky enough to see the world preaching the four color gospel."  Atkins promised that a webcomic on which he is collaborating with the CBLDF’s Alex Cox would make its debut soon.

Atkins was always a friendly face on the show circuit, and will be missed.
