Interviewed by Wesley Craig Green / Head Cheese at Independent Propaganda
In today’s comic market, if you are a publisher who has published longer than five years, then many will consider you a veteran publisher. Not only has Larry Young been publishing for over five years (seven to be exact), he has also helped expose the works of such creators as Brian Wood, Becky Cloonan, Rob G, Rick Spears, Matt Fraction, and others to a larger, receptive audience.
I spoke with Larry about his publishing house, Ait/PlanetLar, his thoughts on web comics, marketing yourself to indy-friendly retailers, and what’s coming up from AiT/PlanetLar.

DYNAMITE ENTERTAINMENT’s all new adventures of the classic Galactica crew continue from creators Rick Remender and Carlos Rafael.
Dynamite stated, “Starbuck is down behind enemy lines with his wisecracks, a few cigars and a band of freedom fighters! Look out Cylons! From the start, Rick [Remender, writer] and Carlos [Rafael, artist] have reminded fans what they grew to love about the original Battlestar Galactica series - and the rogue Starbuck. Throw in some the awe-inspiring covers from Dave Dorman and it’s a series appealing to fans both new and old.”
Along with the last remnants of a shattered Sagittarian colony, Starbuck leads a rag-tag group of freedom fighters against the overwhelming power of the Cylon army. Will the ace pilot be able to get himself and the survivors off the planet and back to the Galactica before the toasters exterminate them all?
CLASSIC BATTLESTAR GALACTICA #3 (SEP063235) Written by Rick Remender, Art by Carlos Rafael, and covers by Dave Dorman and Carlos Rafael

PROJECT: ROMANTIC
Published by AdHouse Books
Written & Illustrated by Various
Publishing Date: October 2006
The third of a set, AdHouse Books’ new anthology highlights the pulp area of romance comic books. As much a history lesson as an anthology of stories, this gorgeous compilation takes into account the record of romance comics from the Kirby and Simon days of Young Romance through the Love and Rockets comics of the 80s to the eye-opening and character-driven modern day comics.

IDW Publishing Editor-In-Chief Chris Ryall and Editor Dan Taylor are headed to Kentucky, where they will be guests at BotCon 2006, the official Transformers convention sponsored by the Hasbro’s Transformers Collectors Club and Hasbro. This major Transformers event takes place September 30th and October 1st at the Lexington Convention Center and the Hyatt Regency Hotel in downtown Lexington, Kentucky and offers a vast array of events and opportunities for all Transformers enthusiasts—including exclusives, souvenirs, contests, dealers, panels, and more.
IDW Publishing will be featured on panels to discuss the Transformers’ return to comic books—past, present, and future. With the conclusion of the first chapter, The Transformers: Infiltration, an all-new chapter is beginning with The Transformers: Escalation in November. As an extra-special treat for attendees, Transformers writer Simon Furman and fan-favorite artist Don Figueroa will both be on hand to sign copies of their comics, discuss future plans and, in Don’s case, sketch for fans, too. Also to be covered are the roles that Transformers: Stormbringer and the Transformers Spotlight series play in the scheme of all things, and the future of IDW’s Transformers comics, as well as IDW’s involvement with the summer movie event of 2007—Transformers: Prime Directive.
IDW will also be offering for sale a very limited BotCon 2006 Exclusive Edition of Transformers Spotlight: Nightbeat, by Furman and MD Bright, which will not be made available anywhere else.

UNDERCARD, a new six-issue serialized comic by creators Chris Gumprich (”Evening Shift”) and Dennis Culver (”Funwrecker,” “Plastic Farm”), will be debuting its first issue at the Stumptown Comics Festival, Table 70, October 29-30 in Portland, Oregon.
Strange Attractors is a postmodern take on adventure and romance comics, an attempt to meld genres, to fold, spindle, and warp the semiotics and sensibilites of Silver Age comics to our own idiosyncratic purposes.
