Guardian Knight Studios, is the new name for the San Antonio comic book publisher that was formerly known as Guardian Knight Comics. With the switch comes with new comics and plans for other geekery.
Changing the name to Guardian Knight Studios “let’s us do more things than just comics,” said Guardian Knight and Alamo City Comic Con founder Alfredo “Apple” De La Fuente recently. “We are diving into tabletop gaming and video games also.”
In the meantime, you can look forward to the new horror comic “Reactor 4,” written and created by De La Fuente, which should hit this summer.Then later this year, expect Andrew Anderson’s “The Knox,” what looks to be a 1970s heist adventure about ex-military veterans who decide to rob Fort Knox, and Paul Hanley’s “The Unthinkables,” what De La Fuente calls “a whole new adventure with some great heroes but with a twist.”
Guardian Knight gave a peak of the new comics Thursday at the 2017 Diamond Retailer Summit, which ran ahead of the Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo or C2E2. (See the video below, though note it contains mature content.) You can see more at next month’s Alamo City Comic Con, which runs May 26-28 at the Convention Center.
Guardian Knight launched in 2015 with the warrior-rabbit fantasy book “Gears & Bones” and the horror miniseries “Sanitarium,” soon followed by the sci-fi action comic “Moon Streak.” The preview video makes no mention of “Gears & Bones” or “Sanitarium,” but does highlight the volume 1 collection of “Moon Streak.” Guardian Knight met a Kickstarter goal last year to publish the first volume of “Gears & Bones.”
