There's tons of functionality to tap into and we'll be adding a little bit here and there as times goes by.

The Rift™ #5 Who Needs Proof? We Do!
Just received the first proof from the new printer and caught a few small typos and one or two pages that needed some color fine-tuning. Also took the extra day of edits to redesign the cover one final time to add more brighter color to it and to frame the incredible art by Amanda Conner and Jimmy Pallmiotti! Look for this new issue to hit stores and this website in 1-2 weeks!

Slip Under the Covers with C.C. Cowan!
When author/actor C.C. Cowan chose us as his main design firm we had no idea that we'd be designing covers for some of his hottest titles. So now two of his three websites are 'live' and his main site features the following covers designed by Andrew J. LoVuolo: All Things Amplified, Life: Through My Eyes, Never Say Love, Surprise I'm Home, and When A Man Cries.
Also keep an eye out for his children's book series Amanda's Amazing Adventures for which we designed the logo, website, and the colorful cover art drawn by Abdul Rashid and colored by Erik Korsgaard!
