Image Comics Recruits ComicBook.com Co-Founder Jim Viscardi

ComicBook.com co-founder and Editorial Director Jim Viscardi is moving on from the site he helped build into an industry powerhouse. As of today, our former boss is now Vice President of Business Development at Image Comics. In a statement, Image says Viscardi will oversee Image's audience growth and build new business relationships for the company in the long term.

"Image Comics stands as the vanguard of creator-owned publishing, embodying the spirit of artistic freedom and empowerment. In joining this team, I am excited by the opportunity to contribute to Image's legacy of fostering creative independence while driving strategic business growth that helps our partners in the Direct Market and beyond," Viscardi said in a statement.

Viscardi began his comics career at Marvel Entertainment, working on the company's marketing, communications, and retailer relations department. It's there that he played a key role in bringing several milestone moments to the public, including Avengers vs X-Men, Marvel NOW!, and the introduction of characters like Miles Morales and the current Captain Marvel.
