Comic Books


Valhalla has created a six-issue mini-series comic book, The Scourge, for Aspen Comics, and a four-issue comic book mini-series, ANTI, for 12 Gauge Comics.[5] Dead Man's Run, which was created for Aspen Comics by Greg Pak.[6]





On March 24, 2016 the United States Patent and Trademark Office denied a trademark registration by Valhalla Game Studios on the grounds there was likelihood of confusion between Valhalla Motion Pictures and Valhalla Games Studios' mark.[7]



Notes





  1. ^ Despite reportedly working extensively on the script, the Writers Guild of America decided not to credit Edward Norton as a writer, only crediting Penn,[3] arguing Norton had not dramatically changed Penn's script.[4]
