Hello Dark Horse fans!

Well, another week has come and gone and here at Dark Horse we are still feeling the overwhelming positive vibes from our presence at C2E2! There's a ton of awesome stuff happening around our books and I want to give you a heads up on the best of the best!

I'm Aub Driver, and this is Dark Horse in the Headlines!

Dark Horse / Red Cross Tsunami Relief Auction

Dark Horse / Star Wars: 20th Anniversary

This past week we had an awesome Star Wars Friday which recapped everything we'd announced at C2E2! Perhaps the best part of this Friday was an interview on StarWars.com with Dark Horse President Mike Richardson and StarWars.com insider Pablo Hidalgo. It's an in depth look at Star Wars: Crimson Empire III along with the rest of the titles lined up for 2011! Further coverage can be found on Newsarama

Rumors keep flying around regarding a new Mass Effect comic series. I'm here to announce those rumors are true. The new series is coming. The official Dark Horse press release is on the way.
