Dial “C” For Comics, LLC and Atlantis Studios are pleased to announce the release of “Return Of The Super Pimps”, a comic book written by Richard A. Hamilton with art by Ulises Carpintero.
During the 1970’s, five protectors – Blackbeard, Foxy Mama, Homeboy, GhettoBlaster, and Sidekick — known as the Super Pimps kept the Hood safe and delivered justice with a strut. But that all changed on one night in 1979, and the Super Pimps were no more.
Now, almost thirty years later, Detective Jackson Maple still believes in his childhood heroes and sets out to reunite the Super Pimps, just as a familiar evil returns to The Hood after so many years.
“Don’t let the word ‘pimps’ throw you,” urges award-winning screenwriter Richard A. Hamilton, the writer/creator of “Return Of The Super Pimps”. “This comic isn’t a spoof or parody of Blaxploitation films – it’s a story about redemption and how all of us, even pimps, have the potential to be heroes, so long as we aspire to do the right thing. That being said, if you love Soul Cinema and straight-up superhero action like I do, ‘Return Of The Super Pimps’ is the book for you, dig?”
“But don’t just take my word for it. Check out the dynamite artwork of international superstar Ulises Carpintero and the vivid colors of Jasen Smith and Maria Laura. These guys are the finest undiscovered talents out there…until now!”
“Return Of The Super Pimps” #1 (of 6) is a full-color, full-length comic book on sale on the official website as well as solicited in the December Diamond Comics Previews catalog. Look for news regarding the release of Issue #2 soon.
Dial “C” For Comics, LLC, is supporting the “Return Of The Super Pimps” series with an appearance at the New York ComicCon February 23-25, 2007 at the Jacob Javits Center. Look for more information at the Dial “C” for Comics and Atlantis Studios booths.

A fellow of the American Film Institute and an award-winning Screenwriter, Richard now lives with his wife in Los Feliz, California, where they try out new recipes and solve mysteries in their spare time. On February 10, 2006, Richard founded Dial “C” For Comics, LLC, to publish “Return Of The Super Pimps”, the first of many dream projects.
