FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Ignition Sequence: SDCC – Revival Co-Creator to Appear at Ignition Press Room Los Angeles, CA (June 26, 2025) – New York Times-bestselling and Eisner Award-nominated writer/artist Tim Seeley (Revival, Hack/Slash, Money Shot) and artist Stefano Simeone (The Last Days of Black Hammer, Radiant Black) are the two latest creators to join the lineup at Ignition Press.
The pair join previously announced creators including co-founder and Creative Director Jeremy Haun, Cullen Bunn, Si Spurrier, Leah Williams, Stephanie Williams, Jim McCann, the Miranda Brothers, Mike Tisserand, Marika Cresta, David Baldeón, Letizia Cadonici, and Joe Eisma.
Seeley and Simeone’s project with Ignition Press will be announced ahead of Comic-Con International in San Diego (SDCC) as part of their Ignition Sequence: SDCC promotional initiative, and the publisher promised additional creators will be announced as part of their creative lineup leading up to and during the premiere pop culture event.
Seeley joins the new comic and graphic novel publisher on the heels of the adaptation of his creator-owned series he co-created with artist Mike Norton, Revival, debuting on SYFY earlier this month. Seeley will appear at the previously announced boutique pop-up, the Ignition Press
Room, which will be open and free to the public in the heart of Gaslamp District (643 G Street).
"Ignition Press is all the things I've been saying I wanted out of a comic book company for years – which is great, because I've been saying them to Jeremy Haun, Filip Sablik, and Jamie Rich, some of my oldest friends in the biz," said Tim Seeley.
“Ignition Press seems to have just one goal: to give its creators everything they need to do their thing at their best," added Stefano Simeone. “If there is one thing that Jamie, Filip and Jeremy love more than comics it's how they are made, and you’ll see it in all the fun Tim and I are having working on our project at Ignition.”
Ignition Press is dedicated to empowering vibrant creativity through creator-driven original stories, told with integrity and commitment, that meet their audience where they are. The Los Angeles-based comic book and graphic novel publisher was co-founded by publishing and media industry veterans Eric Gitter (CEO), Filip Sablik (Publisher), Jamie S. Rich (Editor-in-Chief), and Jeremy Haun (Creative Director) in July 2024 and will exclusively publish creator-driven original series beginning in September 2025.
