Founded by Grant Alter, 50 AMP PRODUCTIONS is a new publishing/ entertainment company that will be bringing some of the hottest properties to comics and graphic novels. The first project coming from 50 AMP PRODUCTIONS is based on “Terraria,” which has sold over 45 million copies.
The collaboration between 50 AMP PRODUCTIONS and RE-LOGIC is not the first time “Terraria” has ventured into comics. In 2016, DC Comics released a one-shot “Terraria” comic book, which was sold with 2 miniature figures. The comics were sold exclusively at Toys “R” Us, where they immediately sold out. Occasionally, copies can be found for sale on eBay for over $60.
“We’ve been working closely with our partners at 50 AMP PRODUCTIONS on all aspects of the graphic novels – from script to line-art to coloring and more, we really feel like these are a perfect balance between staying authentic to the Terraria experience while taking enough creative license to be able to craft an engaging story within the Terraria universe,” said Ted Murphy, Head of Business Strategy and Marketing for RE-LOGIC, creators of the “Terraria” video game.
The single-issue comic books for this series will be available exclusively at www.50ampproductions.com along with some truly exciting collectible goodies.
The collected edition graphic novels will receive a wide distribution to stores and outlets that carry fine graphic novels everywhere.
Grant Alter brings well over a decade of experience in the world of comics and publishing, having served as a writer, editor, and Editor-in-Chief. Dean Koontz, Charlaine Harris, Stephen King, Paulo Coelho, The Dresden Files, the prequel to Game of Thrones, Wheel of Time, Marvel Comics, Image Comics, Devil’s Due, Dabel Brothers, Dynamite Entertainment, Random House and Harper Collins are a few of the projects, people, and companies Alter has had the pleasure of being involved with over the years.
Along with Grant comes a solid team led by Creative Consultant, Andrew Cosby, co-founder of BOOM! Studio and co-creator of the hit SyFy TV series Eureka; and Creative Director Dave Lanphear, a veteran in the comics industry, having worked for Marvel Comics, DC Comics, Image Comics, CrossGen, Sony Pictures, and many other media companies.
50 AMP PRODUCTIONS CEO, Grant Alter said: “I have thoroughly enjoyed working with RE-LOGIC to tell a compelling original story that people of all ages can relate to, while ensuring that it adheres as closely to the existing elements of the game itself. We made this book to be accessible for new fans, but enjoyable for the fans who have supported this game for over a decade.”
