Just launched in April by former Marvel (and DC) editor Mike Marts and former Caliber and Desperado editor Joe Pruett, AfterShock is typical of many of the new comic publishing start-ups in that its executive roster includes plenty of folks with motion picture connections as well as some silicon valley investment capital (see “New Publisher Formed With Marts, Pruett”).
Deadline reports that Neil Gaiman will also contribute a short story to AfterShock’s first prose anthology, which will also include stories from Jim Starlin, Amy Chu, and Brian Stelfreeze.
