Magyar first began working in the comic book industry in 1981 at Marvel Comics and has since also worked for Dark Horse Comics and DC Comics, among others. Magyar's most recent projects include Star Wars: Darth Maul for Dark Horse and Swamp Thing for DC. As well, he inks the syndicated newspaper strip, Zorro.
Magyar will join CrossGen in January when he relocates from Pompano Beach, Florida to the Tampa area. Immediately upon his arrival, he will begin work on Crux.
The veteran inker said he is extremely pleased to move into the CrossGen studio environment.
"After working freelance for 19 years, it'll be a big change to move into this type of situation," said Magyar. "But based on what I've seen so far, it'll be exciting to work in a team environment and produce the best comics of my career."
CrossGeneration Comics is based just outside of Tampa, Florida. Since their initial launch on May 24, 2000, CrossGen Comics has set unprecedented sales records for a new start-up comics publisher by debuting their first five releases on the comic book industry distributor's Top 100 sales list. Since then they have grown into the comic industry's fifth largest publisher. Their unique and innovative approach to comic book publishing is sure to make them a company to watch out for well into the new millennium. The CrossGen Comics, The First, Mystic, Sigil, Scion, and Meridian are available in comic book specialty stores everywhere, with a different one on sale each Wednesday.
The popularity for the first Halloween comic solidifies that entertainment licensed comics are a unique niche that has yet to reach its full potential. Many fans who have enjoyed the Halloween films (and horror films in general) have purchased the comic by Chaos!, and have now become new readers to the market. Anytime you can recruit new readers is a plus for comic book retailers. That phenomenon didn¹t just effect comic retailers but also high-profile retail outlets like Hot Topic and Spencers where the comic was sold as well. As more and more licensed comics evolve from film to page, there looks to be an upswing in the industry because these types of comics are fresh, new, and considered great collector¹s items for avid horror/film enthusiasts.
The latest Halloween comic, Halloween II, will top and surpass its predecessor. Adding more thrills and suspense, Halloween II is not necessarily a sequel, but a completely new terrifying story that will deliver the horror that fans can expect.
Written by Bram Stoker award winning author Phil Nutman and Halloween screenwriter Daniel Farrands, Halloween II is an adventure in modern horror that will keep readers enthralled. This time around our hero Tommy Doyle (from Halloween #1) returns to face Michael Myers, but time is running out! Will he save Haddonfield in the nick of time as the body count rises? Fans will find out when Halloween II hits stores 3-07-01!
Halloween II is a full color, 32 page comic that retails for $2.99. It also comes in a haunting premium version, with Michael Myers pictured haunting a creepy pumpkin patch at night.
For more information on Halloween II, please visit the official Chaos! website at www.chaoscomics.com. For any other inquiries, please contact Chaos! Director of Marketing, Adam Goldfine at 480-991-9080 ext. 546.

Latest X-Traordinary Superhero To Debut December 9 On Kids WB!s Saturday Morning Line-Up
NEW YORK, NY - This December, the Xavier Institute will gain its newest tough-skinned recruit - Spyke. Set to be introduced on Marvel Studios top-rated all-original animated series X-Men: Evolution airing Saturday mornings at 10:30 a.m. est/9:30 a.m. pst on Kids WB!, Spyke, a.k.a. Evan Daniels, is a never-before-seen X-Men character from the creative geniuses at Marvel. The nephew of X-Men veteran Storm, Evan was born into a prickly situation - he can sprout Stegosaurus-like spikes through his skin. This super-human ability makes him a valuable asset to the X-Men team and a formidable adversary for any misguided foe that may defy him.
Spyke will make his debut appearance on Kids WB! in the episode "Speed & Spyke", scheduled to air on December 9 (10:30 a.m est/9:30 am pst), and will introduce viewers to the world of everything "X". Much like the audience, Spyke is unfamiliar with this new mutant environment--so it is through his eyes and experiences that kids will be able to understand the complex X-Men universe.
