It gives me great pleasure to finally announce a new project from Ape Entertainment that is near and dear to my heart…SCOUTS! For those of you who may not know, from time to time I suffer from bouts of insomnia that keep me awake 'til the wee hours of the morning. During these sleep-deprived times I find myself at my most creative, and on one such night I conceived one of the best all-ages ideas I've ever had…Scouts!]]> http://ape-entertainment.com/kizoic/2011/09/scouts-prepare-for-adversity/feed/ 0 http://ape-entertainment.com/kizoic/2011/08/%e2%80%9cape-entertainment-makes-fans-twice-as-rich%e2%80%9d/ http://ape-entertainment.com/kizoic/2011/08/%e2%80%9cape-entertainment-makes-fans-twice-as-rich%e2%80%9d/#comments Mon, 29 Aug 2011 17:30:01 +0000 Brent Erwin http://ape-entertainment.com/kizoic/?p=1031 San Diego, CA (August 29, 2011)—Ape Entertainment and Classic Media are pleased to announce two new ongoing Richie Rich® titles. Due to the overwhelming success of the initial limited series, the first of Ape’s new ongoing titles under the KiZoic “young reader” imprint will be “RICHIE RICH: Rich Rescue”. The 2011 mini-series featured an updated globe-trotting version of Richie Rich and friends traveling the world helping those in need. Responding to fan and retailer demand spurred by the success of the re-envisioned Richie Rich, Ape Entertainment will revive the classic title “Richie Rich GEMS” as an ongoing series to reprint classic Richie Rich stories originally published by Harvey Comics.]]> http://ape-entertainment.com/kizoic/2011/08/%e2%80%9cape-entertainment-makes-fans-twice-as-rich%e2%80%9d/feed/ 0 http://ape-entertainment.com/kizoic/2011/07/strawberry-shortcake-3-looks-sweet/ http://ape-entertainment.com/kizoic/2011/07/strawberry-shortcake-3-looks-sweet/#comments Thu, 07 Jul 2011 01:00:09 +0000 Weldon Adams, Ape Editor http://ape-entertainment.com/kizoic/?p=964 IN DIAMOND PREVIEWS THIS MONTH! The art for Strawberry Shortcake #3 is just so berry beautiful that we wanted to share it with you before it was lettered so you could see every inch of it! The cover is by Peter Wonsowski. The story, written by Georgia Ball, was drawn and colored by Amy Mebberson. And it’s lovely, as you can clearly see! The next step of the process is for Deron Bennett to add the letters. This is just a sample of the lead 16 page story from issue #3, titled “The Berry Scary Storm” . ]]> http://ape-entertainment.com/kizoic/2011/07/strawberry-shortcake-3-looks-sweet/feed/ 0 http://ape-entertainment.com/kizoic/2011/06/richie-rich-review-school-library-journal/ http://ape-entertainment.com/kizoic/2011/06/richie-rich-review-school-library-journal/#comments Mon, 27 Jun 2011 22:49:32 +0000 Brent Erwin http://ape-entertainment.com/kizoic/?p=962 It’s a long list of titles this week.
