The Sunday Comics By Marc Goldner June 29, 2015 Los Angeles, CA – California based entertainment company Golden Bell Entertainment launches their first collaborative arts project called The Sunday Comics, which they’ve been working on for over a year. The Sunday Comics is a publication printed as a newspaper and hardcover book. The publication includes over 175 artists with over 200 pages of full color content. The sizing of the publication is 15” by 22” inches bringing back the traditional U.S. Broadsheet paper size. The content itself has an extraordinary amount of diversity and unique art, storytelling and genres. The publication is broken up into sectionals, as any traditional newspaper would be. The Sunday Comics twist on that old fashioned take is how it’s broken up. Instead of “News”, “Classifieds”, “Sports”, etc. sections that will be included are Traditional Comic Strips, Illustrations, Science Fiction, Fantasy, Online Web Comics, and many more complete with an Archives section courtesy of The Ohio State University’s Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum, King Features, Universal UClick, and Creators.
