NovelGrafx Joins Orange Partner Premier Group

NovelGrafx, the first premium wireless content provider of comic books, announced today that it has joined the Orange Partner Premier group and intends to makes its properties available to Orange for its expanding network in Europe.

"3G technology and its greater bandwidth available from Orange, gives NovelGrafx a unique opportunity to deliver visually rich, ongoing stories to their customers throughout Europe," said Deni Loubert, CEO, NovelGrafx. "As a result, we will enter the market as the first true wireless comic book provider. It's an exciting time for the industry and the artists and publishers joining with us in this effort."

Founded by longtime comic book publisher, Deni Loubert, NovelGrafx offers subscriptions to a variety of comic book titles for download to cell phones. The company has been in product and platform development since fall of 2004 and is expected to launch in Europe by the fourth quarter of 2005. Pending partner selection in the United States, the launch of NovelGrafx is slated for the first quarter of 2006.

"I built my career in the comics industry and we want NovelGrafx to bring all the facets of this vibrant community to the wireless world," said Loubert.

Previews of introductory titles are available at, www.novelgrafx.com. At launch, subscribers can have ongoing stories sent every week for as long as they choose to subscribe. NovelGrafx will continue to build comics community as subscribers will be invited to return regularly to www.novelgrafx.com to discuss the comics with fellow readers, check out the weekly blog-like feature from noted comics-veteran Heidi McDonald and give opinions on the multiple community forums for discussion about fashion to music to current rumors in the comics world.

Headquartered in Long Beach, California, NovelGrafx is the first wireless comic book content provider founded by a comic book industry leader. For information about NovelGrafx, please go to www.novelgrafx.com.
