Imaginova Network Acquires Newsarama

Imaginova Buys NewsaramaThe Imaginova Network, the publishers of LiveScience.com and Space.com, have acquired Newsarama, a leading comics news website. The acquisition looks like a good mix with Imaginova's other sites.
As of last Monday, Newsarama officially became part of the Imaginova Network (you may already know some of Imaginova's sites like LiveScience and Space.com). In the coming days, you'll learn more about Imaginova and its mission to provide news and content for the intellectually curious - a great fit for us. Newsarama will serve as Imaginova's eyes and ears in the world of genre entertainment. We will continue to provide and improve upon our market-leading coverage of the comic book industry. Everything you've come to know and expect from Newsarama is going to get better.

And that's really the story of this day ...what you have come to expect from Newsarama -won't be changing. We will continue to guide and grow the site editorially as we have since Day 1 and the writers you have come to know and trust will come along with us for this exciting ride.

Starting now, however, we'll be armed with the resources to begin phasing in additional content and introducing new media to improve site design, functionality, and dependability, and ultimately to expand our brand of coverage to other entertainment genres you're all already interested in.
The press release says that Newsarama Senior Editors Michael Doran and Matt Brady will join the staff of Imaginova's editorial team and will continue to oversee the day-to-day operations of the site. They co-wrote the note we excerpted from above. The press release is available at the same page as the announcement.
