    Boom! Comics Now at Disney Soda Fountain and Studio Store

    Stephen SchleicherBy Stephen SchleicherMay 8, 20091 Comment4 Mins Read

    Here’s an interesting bit of news from Boom! Studios; their kids line of comics will be appearing on the store shelves of the Disney Soda Fountain and Studio Store, right next door to the El Capitan Theatre.  Talk about perfect placement to sell you products!

    There’s a reason we like Boom! Studios, they are the small guy that is making it big, by doing the right thing.  Where will this deal lead?  I can see the Boom!/Disney relationship expand even further, and it will not come as any surprise when the company announces it will handle all the Disney comics.

    Complete press release after the jump.

    Press Release

    Boomstudios_1.jpgDisney’s Soda Fountain and Studio Store announced today that the new BOOM! Kids line of Muppet and Disney/Pixar comics will be available to their customers starting immediately! Newsstand editions of THE MUPPET SHOW COMIC BOOK, THE INCREDIBLES: FAMILY MATTERS, CARS: THE ROOKIE and all forthcoming Muppet and Disney/Pixar comics will be hitting the shelves each Wednesday as new comics are released!

    “We couldn’t be more excited to be the only comics carried at the Disney’s Soda Fountain and Studio Store,” said BOOM! Kids editor Paul Morrissey. “I can’t wait to see the fans’ reaction to these great books!”

    Commenting on the announcement, Lylle Breier, General Manager of The Muppets Studio, said, “BOOM! Studios has a reputation for creating some of the most exciting and imaginative comic books, and we’re pleased to be offering their new line of Muppet and Disney-Pixar comics under the BOOM! Kids imprint at Disney’s Soda Fountain & Studio Store. These great new comics offer fun new adventures centered around ‘The Muppet Show’ and such popular Disney-Pixar properties as ‘The Incredibles’ and ‘Cars.’ Muppet fans and moviegoers are going to enjoy this fantastic new line of comics and they can always pick up the latest releases in person while they’re shopping or having an ice cream sundae at Disney’s Soda Fountain.”

    BOOM! Studios announced the launch of their new imprint, “BOOM! Kids” in late March. BOOM! Kids serves as a home for BOOM!’s kid-friendly publishing content. The company’s new imprint includes its own website, www.boom-kids.com. The premiere books for this imprint include THE INCREDIBLES: FAMILY MATTERS #1, THE MUPPET SHOW COMIC BOOK #1, both released on March 25th, and CARS: THE ROOKIE #1 released April 1st.

    All BOOM! Kids’ titles will be serialized as individual 24-page comic books in Direct Market comic book collector shops and newsstands; then each four issue complete story will be collected into graphic novel trade paperbacks available in the mass market via Borders, Barnes & Noble and the direct market as well.

    Recently, BOOM! Studios announced a national newsstand distribution agreement with Kable Distribution Services, Inc. for the BOOM! Kids line of the monthly publication to the newsstand market.

      If this works, how long before the regular Disney Stores start carrying them? This is the sort of marketing that comics could use. Bring comics to people, don’t expect the people to come to comics.
