ORLANDO, Florida , February 6, 2014 (press release) – Red Giant Entertainment Inc. (OTCQB: REDG), an innovative Intellectual Property company specializing in high quality characters and content for use in a variety of media and entertainment, is pleased to announce that it has received preliminary orders and will be printing 100,000 copies of each of its four Free Comic Book Day offerings, totaling 400,000 copies in circulation.

Additionally, Red Giant is seeing a strong response from advertisers and retail partners to the GIANT-SIZE line. Red Giant will issue more information on these developments at a later time.

"We couldn't be more thrilled with the retailer response to our Free Comic Book Day bundle," said Benny Powell, CEO of Red Giant Entertainment. "We began as a 'digital first' publisher and our bold move into the print market is being welcomed with open arms. It is our goal for our unique ad-supported print comics' initiative to create millions of new comic book readers for the Direct Market of brick-and-mortar comic shops to similarly embrace, while building literacy and encouraging imagination."

The "Free Comic Book Day" is a limited edition precursor to the upcoming launch of Red Giant's massive circulation "GIANT-SIZE" line of books. The titles will be Giant-Size Action, Giant-Size Fantasy, Giant-Size Adventure and Giant-Size Thrills.
