Former Marvel Editor-in-Chief Joe Quesada is partnering with Mad Cave Studios and the European publisher Dupuis to launch a new imprint, Amazing Comics. Quesada will handle creative duties from his home in Idaho, while Dupuis and Miami-based Mad Cave will partner to distribute the comics internationally.
The launch title, Disciple: Quarto, debuted at Comic-Con International in San Diego as a convention-exclusive preview comic. A rethinking of William Shakespeare's Hamlet, Disciple: Quarto is co-written by Quesada and Charles Dorfman and drawn by Quesada, with inker Wade von Grawbadger, colorist Richard Isanove, and letterer Joe Caramagna completing the creative team.
"The true origin of Disciple came about when I met Charles Dorfman, a talented writer with a passion for graphic storytelling," Quesada said in a statement accompanying the announcement. "Charles pitched an adaptation of Hamlet, which sparked a creative journey that led to the unique version of Disciple we have today. This project blends Shakespearean elements with contemporary genres, creating a rich, mythological world for our readers to explore that begins as a prequel to the original, set in a whole new world."
