Diamond Geezer

The Diamond Geezer imprint, launched in 2013, was intended to capitalize on internet book sales, though disagreements about how payments should be met, unease concerning rights, and the launch of numerous other internet publishers at first delayed, then killed the notion.

Of the announced titles, only The Beginning Of Terror by Richard Cattoni was completed to a satisfactory level. Based on the public domain character The Black Terror, and re-envisioned as a dark pulp-infused horror character by Gary James , the series is due to begin towards the end of 2015 in digital editions, after initial print copies have been produced.

L.W. Richton's proposed title, Odd Man Out, was a reworking of a character from the 1996 zine This Little Piggy, about a man who looks remarkably similar to a notorious criminal. It wasn't a bad choice for the project, though it suffered from having a core concept so similar to numerous other stories of the time.

It is suggested that the logo for the imprint was less than inspiring, leading to restrained support for proceeding with the project.
