[The Beat mentions a link to](http://www.comicsbeat.com/2012/07/30/ivan-brandon-to-launch-offset-comics/) [Offset Comic](http://offsetcomics.com/) at the end of [recent piece by comic writer Ivan Brandon](http://www.theawl.com/2012/07/batman-ish). I am hoping that Offset turns out to be a new digital comics imprint, similar to [MonkeyBrain](http://www.monkeybraincomics.com/). I’ve heard Mr. Brandon speak a few times[^fail], as well as having had the pleasure of talking to him once or twice personally, and I think he has an excellent grasp of the comics market. I can consider him a forward thinker and someone, who if given the right opportunity, would be able to do some big things as far as marketing, packaging and distribution of comics.
[^fail]: I was disappointed at this year’s [HeroesCon](http://heroesonline.com/heroescon) when I found out I missed the first half of a panel where he was an unadvertised participant. I pretty much ran to the panel to catch the second half.
