Founded in 2005 by Philly natives Joe Brusha and Ralph Tedesco, Zenescope Entertainment is quickly becoming one of the most recognized independent comic book and graphic novel publishers in the world. Their flagship title GRIMM FAIRY TALES, which is also written by Joe and Ralph, immediately found a strong audience and has certainly surpassed the expectations set by many industry insiders. At already more than 22 issues on shelves or in post production GRIMM is one of the longest running independent comic book series on the market today. Furthermore, the GRIMM FAIRY TALES Volume 1 Trade Paperback sold out of its 10, 000 copy print run in just over a year, prompting a 2nd printing of the book while Volume 2 has sold close to 6, 000 copies in less than 3 months. These are staggering numbers for an independent graphic novel.
