Legendary Comics is an American comic book publisher founded in 2010. The company is owned by Legendary Entertainment, a media company located in Burbank, California. The company publishes both original works and licensed ones based on films produced by Legendary Pictures.
Legendary Entertainment first announced the launch of its comic book division, Legendary Comics, in 2010 with the appointment of editor-in-chief Bob Schreck[2] and editor Greg Tumbarello. The first graphic novel published by the company was Holy Terror by Frank Miller, which was released in 2011[3] as the #1 graphic novel and immediately launched the division as a top ten comics publisher. Pacific Rim: Tales from Year Zero was a #1 New York Times Best Seller, Godzilla: Awakening was a New York Times Best Seller, and Annihilator by Grant Morrison & Frazer Irving was nominated for an Eisner Award. In 2020, the company published an adaptation of Bram Stoker's 1897 Dracula novel, which used the likeness of Bela Lugosi, the lead actor in the 1931 film from Universal Pictures.[4]
