Bravest Warriors Books ON THE WAY
Want even MORE Bravest Warriors?
We have the online animated series, we have the comics, and now Perfect Square is getting ready to team up with Cartoon Hangover to distribute a line of books based on the popular franchise. Yep, starting in 2014, expect to see books inspired by Bravest Warriors to hit shelves with AT LEAST three titles to hit the first year.
This is a rather important deal for this reason…it legitimizes the business plan of starting an online property, and watching it grow into a merchandising deal that makes said property that much more valuable. Not saying online properties don’t get physical distro, they do, Cyanide and Happiness and Simon’s Cat are examples of properties that are pretty huge online that have then gone on to sell books based off its franchise, but usually that involves a collection of web comics where as this is actual original content geared specifically to a different medium.
Halo, Star Wars, and Gears of Wars are all brands that have started in one entertainment medium and have gone on to have a massive underground following of their novel releases. There is no reason why Bravest Warriors can’t do the same thing. My question is, could Bravest Warriors over take Pen Ward’s OTHER series Adventure Time in popularity?

"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
