At the
2010 Comic-Con International in San
Diego, comics creator and Sony Art Director Mat Broome
will be on-hand to showcase the first glimpse at two new innovative
projects.
The first announcement is of a new creator-owned comic series, following
in the
footsteps of his last creator-owned series The
End League with Rick Remender. Broome's second announcement will be of
an
innovative online start-up that will bring together the top creative
minds of
comics, video games, film, television and music. These two projects
underscore
a revitalized creative effort by Broome that has been years in the
making.
"I've been absent from
the San Diego Comic Convention for years since I published my own books
with Saffire and Skinners," said Mat Broome," so it'll be a blast coming
back to the
con after publishing several games with a large company like Sony, and
returning to comics with 3D knowledge, and a software developers
experience.
It's going to allow me to do creative
things with my ideas, and new properties that I could have only dreamed
of
before and make them more accessible to a larger audience."
Broome
leads a dual career,
working as an Art Director at Sony Online Entertainment and as Visual
Director
for the DC Universe Online MMORPG while also illustrating such comic
projects
as The End League for Dark Horse and
Marvel Comics' Legend of the Blue Marvel.
Broome has a long history in the comics industry, having got his start
working
on Marvel's X-Force series before
joining Jim Lee's Homage Studios and WildStorm Entertainment working on a
variety of projects including his own series Defcon 4. With over twenty
years spent in both the comic and video
game industries, Broome has first-hand knowledge and front-line
experience on
the ins and outs of being successful.
"Over the past 25 years
in entertainment, I've met and worked with an amazing group of creators,
In
Music, Gaming, Publishing and even Animation," Broome explained.
"There's been
no shortage of talented people all wanting to share and get involved in
building relationships with other professionals. Launching my own start
up
gives me the opportunity to "give back" to as many as possible and
help grow the business to others who aren't in and around Los Angeles."
Mat
Broome will be on-hand
during San Diego Comic-Con at Booth #2002, showcasing both projects for
both
fans and industry colleagues.
