IDW Publishing has announced that they will be managing Oni Press foreign rights catalogue for non-English language markets. IDW International is IDW’s newest division that oversees all international licensing of the IDW catalogue and its partners.
The partnership with Oni Press includes a variety of best-selling, award-winning, original and licensed comic books and graphic novels including: Rick and Morty, Invader ZIM, Scott Pilgrim, Queen & Country, Courtney Crumrin, Wasteland, The Sixth Gun, Stumptown, Wet Moon, Letter 44, The Bunker, The Life After, The Coldest City, Kaijumax, and more.
“We’re very excited to be working with IDW to bring Oni Press titles to international audiences,” says Oni Press Publisher Joe Nozemack. “With the explosive growth in the influence, visibility, and demand for comic book content worldwide there are more opportunities than ever to license our titles outside of the US.”
“The Oni titles resonate well with audiences across the globe and we look forward to working with them to expand their international presence,” said IDW CEO Ted Adams. “Adding the Oni catalog to our diverse IDW and Archie offerings strengthens our mission to be a worldwide content distributor.”
Oni Press joins Archie Comics under the IDW International umbrella. Jeff Webber, IDW International’s Vice President of Subsidiary Rights will be available for meetings at London Book Fair, April 12-14. To schedule a meeting with Jeff contact him at jeff@idwpublishing.com.
