“We are massive fans of these incredible graphic novels,” said Katie Wilkinson, Commercial & Strategy Director at The Point.1888.
The Joester Loria Group – the exclusive global licensing agent for Dog Man and Cat Kid Comic Club, on behalf of Writers House and Dav Pilkey – has appointed The Point.1888 as its local licensing agent in the United Kingdon and Eire.
Dav Pilkey’s Dog Man series launched in August 2016 and has more than 60 million copies in print, while all five books in Pilkey’s Cat Kid Comic Club series have topped bestseller lists. Elsewhere, an animated Dog Man feature film is slated to open in theatres worldwide in January 2025.
“We are absolutely honoured and thrilled to be representing Dog Man and Cat Kid in the UK and working alongside JLG,” said Katie Wilkinson, Commercial & Strategy Director at The Point.1888.
“We are massive fans of these incredible graphic novels and are so excited to build a consumer products programme that extends the characters that children already love into new areas. We can’t wait to start conversations at Licensing Expo.”
Jackie DeMaio, Senior Licensing Director at The Joester Loria Group, added: “The Point.1888’s strength across multiple licensing categories and a number of brands has made them the great choice to grow the Dog Man and Cat Kid licensing program. We are looking forward to building the licensing program of this much-loved brand.”
