History:

Hound Comics started when wrestler and actor William “Brimstone” Kucmierowski partnered with Marcello Carnevali to create the comic book Brimstone and The Borderhounds, loosely based upon the wrestling character of the same name. The comic stars Brimstone as an agent of the afterlife, returning lost souls to their proper place. The religions and way of life of this world are only training for what comes next and you may find yourself as a slave of the many afterlife “corporations” that vie for ultimate power over the rest.
Brimstone and The Borderhounds was the cornerstone of Hound Comics and became picked by Barnes and Noble as a comic to be carried in their chain of retail stores. Hound Comics has used this success to push the company forward into many different areas of comic books and pop culture. They have used the Brimstone and The Borderhounds as the basis for an animated series and video game. They have also launched a line of food products based on the characters in the comics and in the company itself.

Hound Comics has pushed itself to be a multimedia player in the world of comics and in other areas of pop culture. They continue to seek creator owned content to add to their publishing line and are very active on the comic con circuit. They have also launched a Hound Kids line of comics and continue to seek ways to expand the Hound empire.
