We are proud to announce that Aw Yeah Comics is joining Thrillbent.com, and will be available through Comixology starting tomorrow. In addition, the Aw Yeah crew will be producing digital exclusive content through Thrillbent. It is the first step in producing more all ages material for digital consumption.
