HistoryOriginally teamed up to write and develop screenplays,[6] Joe Brusha and Ralph Tedesco realized that comic books and graphic novels followed the same process.[6] An avid comic book reader,[6] Brusha believed that comic books and graphic novels would become part of mainstream America, and wanted to help that process.[6] They began writing and assembling the creative team for their flagship title, Grimm Fairy Tales and published the first issue in June 2005. In 2006, Brusha and Tedesco partnered with writer Raven Gregory (known for his series The Gift[7] ), to begin work on the Return to Wonderland series, released in 2007.[8] Selected titles
Adaptations of original worksGrimm Fairy Tales: The Animated SeriesAfter meeting with director Jon Schnepp in 2011 at San Diego Comic Con,[10] the group collaborated on creating Grimm Fairy Tales: The Animated Series.

On May 1 the Kickstarter exceeded its funding goal and production began.[11] Featuring the voice talents of Lena Headey (Game of Thrones, 300), Briana Evigan (Step Up 2, The Devil’s Carnival), Chris Hardwick (Nerdist), and Robert Forster (Jackie Brown),[12] the pilot is currently being shopped to potential networks.
