Top Cow’s The Darkness made its Motion Book debut yesterday on Madefire.Episodes #1 & #2 are available now with subsequent episodes releasing bi-weekly.”The Darkness is one of the seminal books to emerge from the Image revolution of the ’90s, and it’s as powerful today as it was back then,” said CCO and Co-Founder of Madefire Liam Sharp. “Add sound, motion – the element of surprise! – and you have a title ideally suited to the Motion Book format! Lock all the doors, close the windows, and settle down for a chilling night-time read…”Designed for reading on a screen, Motion Books utilize movement, sound and depth all in service of the story and are available on iOS devices and the web. Their web-reading partner is social network and creative giant deviantART, the largest creative community in the world and the Madefire app has been 5-star rated since launch, and was awarded an App Store’s “Best of 2012”.”Madefire really brings comic “motion” books alive in a way no one else has yet to master,” said Matt Hawkins, President of Top Cow. “The Darkness is alive in a way we’ve not been witness to since the release of the last video game.”
