FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Comicsburgh Signs National Sales & Distribution Agreement with Independent Publishers Group (IPG)
Pittsburgh, PA — 2/20/26 — Comicsburgh, the Pittsburgh-based independent comic book collective known for its creator-owned storytelling and bold genre work, is proud to announce a new national sales and distribution partnership with Independent Publishers Group (IPG), one of the largest and most respected independent book distributors in North America.
Through this partnership, Comicsburgh’s flagship titles will now be available to bookstores, libraries, and major book retailers across the United States and Canada, significantly expanding the collective’s reach beyond the direct comic market.
“This is a major step forward for us,” said D.P. Brown. “Comicsburgh was built on creator ownership, community, and independent spirit. Partnering with IPG allows us to bring that same energy to bookstores and libraries nationwide while maintaining full creative control of our stories.”
What Readers Can Expect
Comicsburgh’s initial national rollout through IPG will spotlight three of its most recognized titles:
The Theme of Thieves
A thought-provoking time-bending mystery where two teens investigate unexplained disappearances, uncovering a conspiracy that challenges reality itself.
Blending science fiction, suspense, and grounded emotional storytelling, The Theme of Thieves offers readers a layered narrative exploring identity, consequence, and moral choice. The trade paperback edition positions the series as an accessible entry point for both graphic novel readers and literary audiences seeking high-concept storytelling.
Beowulf
A dynamic reimagining of the legendary warrior’s saga, bringing myth, monsters, and heroism to life for modern readers.
This adaptation presents the classic epic through bold visuals and contemporary pacing, making the legendary tale accessible to teen and adult readers alike. The collected edition offers libraries and bookstores a compelling fantasy title rooted in timeless themes of courage and legacy.
The Edge
A character-driven comic series about individuals who are granted extraordinary abilities that may kill them or make them go insane.
Combining superhero intensity with emotional realism, The Edge explores accountability, anger, and the cost of strength. The collected volumes deliver high-impact storytelling while maintaining a grounded human core.
Expanding the Comicsburgh Universe
Founded as a platform to elevate independent creators, Comicsburgh has grown out of Pittsburgh from a regional movement into a multi-title publishing collective with national retailer relationships and a growing convention presence. The partnership with IPG marks the next chapter in that evolution, opening doors to expanded bookstore placement, library circulation, and broader literary recognition.
Readers can expect continued releases, expanded editions, and new entries into the Comicsburgh universe in the coming years.
