Top Cow’s New Pilot Season

LOS ANGELES, Calif., August 9, 2010 – Top Cow Productions, Inc. proudly announced today that Pilot Season 2010 will debut next month with six new concepts and six different creative teams, and will adopt a 6-week event format. The 32-page preview book, Pilot Season 2010: Declassified, first made available at this year's Comic-Con International: San Diego, will be available in stores later this month.

Since 2007, Top Cow has given fans the power to choose the next two Top Cow series based on a selection of one-shot Pilot Season "pilot" issues through online voting. The inaugural Pilot Season initiative garnered more than four million votes from fans across the globe.

"Pilot Season started as an experiment, but has evolved into a highly anticipated yearly event," commented Top Cow Publisher Filip Sablik, "This year we're amping up the intensity based on fan and retailer feedback by releasing all 6 projects in a weekly format. With a wide variety of creators, genres, and styles represented, I'm confident there's something for everyone in this 2010's contestants!"
