“We’re very excited by our partnership with ShiftyLook to help create, and now publish, the adventures of Bravoman,” said UDON Chief of Operations Erik Ko. “UDON crew members Matt Moylan and Dax Gordine are writing and drawing a hilarious, high-quality strip. I’m thrilled that a brand new audience will get to discover the series in comic and book stores.”
