Broken Frontier

Dabel Brothers is pleased to announce that they have reached an agreement with Dean Koontz and iVerse Media to release *Frankenstein: Prodigal Son* Volume 1 on mobile devices.

*Frankenstein: Prodigal Son* is the first novel in the trilogy of re-imagined Frankenstein lore from master suspense writer Dean Koontz.  The comic book series was originally released last year, adapted by writer Chuck Dixon with fantastic artwork by fan favorite Brett Booth.  The graphic novel shipped in February 2009 from Del Rey.

"Dean Koontz has a fascinating take on the Frankenstein mythos, and The Dabel Brothers have done an amazing job bringing it to life," said iVerse Media CEO Michael Murphey. "We can’t wait to bring it to mobile readers."

The comics will be available on Apple’s iPhone and iPod touch, and Google’s Android Mobile Devices through iVerse Media’s digital distribution technology.  The first issue of each will be available for download for free, with subsequent issues available for 99 cents each.

iPhone and iPod Touch owners can search for "FRANKENSTEIN" in the App Store located directly on their phone, or in iTunes on their PC or Mac.  With a few touches the digital comic will be downloaded directly onto their device.  Google Android users will follow the same steps using Google’s Android Marketplace.

With the third Koontz Frankenstein novel, *Dead and Alive*, recently hitting stores everywhere July 28th, timing could not be better.  The novel debuted at #1 on the New York Times Mass Market Best Seller list.

"Dean has such a huge following, we’re excited that we can bring these comics to his fan base in a new way," said Dabel Brothers Business Manager Rich Young, "and at the same time potentially expose people who like his work but may not be aware that he’s involved in these projects at all."
