Oni Press and Lion Forge on Comics Plus

LibraryPass, Inc. has announced a distribution agreement with Oni Press to make its digital catalog available to libraries and schools  through Comics Plus, consolidating the existing backlist titles from Lion Forge Comics under one banner. With Comics Plus, readers can access thousands of digital comics,  graphic novels, and manga through their school or library, with unlimited simultaneous  access for online and offline reading.  

Founded in 1997, Oni Press has a 25-year history as one of the industry’s most respected  and acclaimed publishers of award-winning comic books and graphic novels with titles  including Bryan Lee O’Malley’s Scott Pilgrim, K. O’Neill’s Tea Dragon Society, Cullen Bunn  & Brian Hurtt’s The Sixth Gun, Maia Kobabe’s Gender Queer, Ezra Claytan Daniels’  Upgrade Soul, Brenna Thummler’s Sheets trilogy, and many hundreds more. In 2019, Oni  Press merged with Lion Forge Comics – the Eisner Award-winning independent comic  book publisher founded by Academy Award-winning producer and entrepreneur David  Steward II – to create one of the largest, independent libraries of comics content anywhere  in media. The Oni-Lion Forge Publishing Group now exists as a publishing subsidiary of  Steward’s diversified global media company, Polarity. 

The Oni-Lion Forge Publishing Group publishes more than 60 original and licensed graphic  novels annually, in addition to an extensive list of periodical comics. Many notable titles  from Oni Press are already available on Comics Plus, like Action Journalism, Gender  Queer, No Ivy League, Puerto Rico Strong, Sheets, and Upgrade Soul, with more to be  added in the months ahead, including the complete Scott Pilgrim.
