Publishing Excellence with Year-Long Digital Comic Giveaway
Leading UK graphic novel publisher marks two decades in business with weekly free
comics for newsletter subscribers
LONDON, UK – 27 October 2025 – Markosia Enterprises Ltd, one of the UK’s
foremost independent publishers of graphic novels, is celebrating its 20th anniversary
with an unprecedented offer for comic book fans worldwide. Beginning Friday, 31st
October 2025, the company will give away a free digital comic book every week to
subscribers of their newsletter for the foreseeable future.
Founded in May 2005, Markosia has grown from humble beginnings to become a
major force in independent publishing, releasing more than 600 graphic novels to the
global market. The company’s journey began when founder Harry Markos faced the
possibility of losing his job due to a serious back injury and potential disability. Rather
than accept defeat, Markos channelled his passion for sequential art into building what
would become one of Britain’s most enduring independent publishers.
Over the past two decades, Markosia has built an impressive catalogue featuring
acclaimed titles including Beowulf, Dark Mists, Midnight Kiss, Starship Troopers,
Shadowmancer, The Lexian Chronicles, and Traveller. The company has collaborated
with some of the industry’s finest talent, including Lee Garbett, Tony Lee, the late Norm
Breyfogle, Ryan Stegman, Szymon Kudranski, and Inaki Miranda, among many
others.
While specialising in graphic novels, Markosia has diversified its publishing portfolio
to include prose fiction and children’s picture books, demonstrating the company’s
commitment to storytelling across multiple formats.
“Twenty years ago, I turned what could have been a devastating setback into an
opportunity to build something lasting,” said Harry Markos, Founder of Markosia
Enterprises. “This anniversary isn’t just about looking back at what we’ve achieved –
it’s about thanking the readers, creators, and supporters who’ve been with us on this
journey. These weekly free digital comics are our way of celebrating with the
community that made it all possible.”
The weekly digital comic giveaway begins 31st October 2025 and will continue
throughout the coming year. Readers can sign up for the newsletter at
www.markosia.com to receive their free weekly comic and stay updated on new
releases, creator interviews, and special announcements.
As Markosia enters its third decade, the company remains committed to championing
independent voices and delivering quality storytelling to readers around the world.
