As an independent publisher, Brian E Arts is devoted to making sure the level of production is as good as any of the major publishers. This is only possible due to the amazing talent he works with from Marvel, DC, Image, and Disney. Artists like Clayton Crain, Freddie Williams II, Khoi Pham, Erwin J Arroza, Neal Anderson, Jeff Von Buskirk, Jay A DeFoy, and many others. Brian is also working on Blood of the Baptist with the renowned theological scholar Jimmy Akin. Jimmy is an internationally known speaker and best-selling author of over 30 books.
Brian's work has been featured on a wide range of prominent podcasts including The Babylon Bee, 'Comics, Beer & Sci-Fi', Flashpoint, Comic Book Club, Canner Air, 3 Geeks, and The PVDcast. He has also worked on Florian's Knights the Movie - a documentary about firefighters who ride motorcycles to cope with PTSD. The director Panayioti Yannitsos and his crew also filmed Brian discussing his novel Inferno City Firehouse for a short film to promote Florian's Knights (coming soon).
Brian has collaborated with several musicians in creating professional original music written for the books. This music is featured in his trailers and comes as an extra bonus with the purchase of a book. He has had the privilege of working with Cindy Morgan, a two-time GRAMMY nominee and thirteen-time Dove award winner, including the eminent Songwriter of the Year award; and the multi-talented model, singer, song-writer, and actor Hallea Jones. Hallea is best known for her role as Eden Hawkins on Netflix's hit show, Locke & Key.
Inferno City Firehouse is dedicated to HELPING all who are struggling with PTSD and/or depression by donating 20% of all profits to PTSD and depression treatment centers and by bringing awareness to the problem in hopes of lessening the stigma associated with these conditions.
