Papercutz, a graphic novel publishing company for tweens 8-14, launched in the Spring of 2005 with the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew. With writers Scott Lobdell and Stefan Petrucha and artists such as Lulu Award winner Lea Hernandez and Sho Murase on board, these classic characters have made a huge impact in the exploding graphic novel market. To date, Papercutz has sold over 300,000 Nancy Drew and over 250,000 Hardy Boys graphic novels. Following the success of these two series, Papercutz went on to re-launch “Classics Illustrated”, the horror classic “Tales from the Crypt”, and introduce “Bionicle” graphic novels, based on LEGO’s hottest toy line since Lego itself. Bionicle Volume #1 was the largest launch for Papercutz to date, proving that this relatively new publisher shows no signs of slowing down any time soon.
