That's exactly what happened to me with Alterna Comics.
Alterna Comics was created by president and publisher Peter Simeti on January 4th, 2007. Alterna has published a variety of genres, including but not limited to: horror, sci-fi, suspense, humor, superhero, children's titles, and fantasy/adventure. Alterna Comics titles are currently distributed through print by Diamond Comics Distributors and Partners Book Distributors and through digital by Comixology, Drivethru Comics, iVerse, and My Digital Comics.
President and publisher Peter Simeti was kind enough to answer some probing questions from me.
What inspired you to start a creator-owned graphic novel publisher?
There's a tremendous amount of talented artists and writers out there and I wanted to essentially help spread the word about their stories.
Have you always had a fascination with comics / pop culture?
Yes, as long as I could remember. Read my first comic when I was six years old, it was a Spectacular Spider-Man issue and I've loved them since.
