Magma Comix partners with Ruptura Estudios

The new imprint will publish works of fiction with Hispanic appeal, beginning with the release of HELL’S HALF ACRE

Magma Comix has partnered with Ruptura Estudios! The imprint will publish works of fiction with Hispanic appeal by creators from around the world, and will release three titles in 2024, beginning with the thrilling Western-noir with a supernatural twist, HELL’S HALF ACRE.

In Hell’s Half Acre, written by Magma founder and New York Times Best-selling author, Denton J. Tipton (Cobra Kai, G.I. Joe) with art and Cover A by Ramon Bunge (Legacy of Mandrake the Magician), the exciting new series features special variant covers by Chris Evenhuis (Wynonna Earp, Sister Crash) and the first issue has a retailer incentive cover by Glenn Fabry (Preacher, Captain America).

Life is changing fast in 1904 Nashville but the sins of the past live free in a place called Hell’s Half Acre—where you can find gambling, sex and most any other debauchery ever dreamed. None do it better than Miss Marion’s, where a mysterious gambler named Britt sets in motion a chain of events that will have lawmen and outlaws alike aiming to put him six feet under. Will the woman that Britt scorned be his downfall or salvation when Hell comes calling?

Ruptura Estudios was originally founded in the 1990s amid the burgeoning scene of the so-called “new Mexican comic.” Over time, it has stepped in and out of the spotlight, changing its form and finding different ways to collaborate with other publishing houses. Now, nearly 30 years since its inception, it returns with its core mission intact: help creators and readers on journeys throughout different realities.

“When Denton shared his plans for Magma Comix, I automatically thought that this was a train I wanted to travel on,” said R.G. LlarenaRuptura Estudios’ Managing Partner. “Sometime later, here we are, embarking on our first journey together. To victory!”

“R.G.’s commitment to creator rights has been evident throughout his long career, making Ruptura an ideal partner for Magma,” said Magma Comix President & Publisher, Denton J.Tipton. “Together, we will create captivating storyworlds that transport our readers and lure them back time and time again.”

For fans of Cullen Bunn’s The Sixth Gun and Jonah HexHell’s Half Acre #1 drops in shops June 5th.
