The comiXology Originals line brought exclusive new comics and graphic novels to digital customers of comiXology and Amazon, beginning in 2016 (see "comiXology Launches Exclusive Content"). The new program with Dark Horse will be the first release of these comics in print format. When the line was announced, the exclusive window for the digital platforms was described as "a very generous time frame," but not a permanent situation, and now the first releases are going to begin hitting retailers.
Dark Horse CEO Mike Richardson lauded the fit with the Dark Horse line. "ComiXology’s line of creator-owned comics sits perfectly alongside the acclaimed creator-owned graphic novels that are the bedrock of Dark Horse Comics," he said.
ComiXology Co-Founder and CEO David Steinberger spoke of a longstanding desire to produce print editions of the company’s comics. "We were always hopeful comiXology Originals books would get into readers’ hands via comics retailers and book stores, and Dark Horse is a terrific collaborator to work with to do so," he said.
