ATP Signs Dixon

ATP to publish Chuck Dixon creatro owned title.

ATP Comics, a division of Across the Pond Studios, finalized a publishing contract with comic legend and writer Chuck Dixon ("Way of the Rat", "Nightwing") that grants ATP Comics the rights to Chuck Dixon�s latest creator owned project, "Iron Ghost".

"Iron Ghost" is an exciting tale of war intrigue that follows the adventures of a vigilante during World War II as he wages a one-man battle against the Nazi Third Reich. It follows the style of such masterpieces as Shadow or the Green Hornet.

Accompanying Chuck Dixon is illustrator Sergio Cariello ("Metal Locus", "The Path"), and cover art by Flint Henry ("Sketch Magazine", "Batman: Bullock�s Law").

"Needless to say I was pretty excited when Sergio (Cariello) said that Chuck (Dixon) was interested in publishing a new book he was working on with ATP." said Stephan Nilson, ATP President/EIC. "Obviously having someone like Chuck working on a title with our company is huge, but to have Sergio and Flint working on it too is just mind blowing."

Sergio Cariello recently worked with ATP on "Metal Locus", a story soon to appear in "ATP Presents" #1.

Chuck Dixon began his writing career writing for children's books such as "Winnie the Pooh" and "Raggedy Ann and Andy". Later he migrated into the world of comics with his first work for Comico's "Evangeline". Eventually his fine talents went to many publishers such as Bongo Comics, CrossGen, Dark Horse, Image, DC, Marvel, and many others. His great talents even led him to a Wizard Fan Award for DC's "Vengeance of Bane" which made headlines in 1992.

"Production on this new title has already begun. Chuck's scripts are done and Sergio has started on the interior art.

"Iron Ghost" will be promoted at all ATP convention appearances, as well as previewed on the ATP website at www.acrossthepondcomics.com with new character sketches and teasers.

Scheduled to ship early 2005, "Iron Ghost" will be a 32-page full color comic book, published originally as a six-issue mini series to be followed by a monthly series.

Accompanying art will be available at: www.acrossthepondcomics.com
