Oni Press was founded in 1997 by Joe Nozemack and Bob Schreck with the goal of "publishing the kinds of comics and graphic novels they themselves would want to read." (www.onipress.com) In 1999, Schreck left the company, but to this day Nozemack is still publishing one of the most varied lines in comics out there.
Nozemack built Oni Press into one of the industries most innovative publishing houses with the help of Jamie S. Rich (editor in chief, 1999-2003), James Lucas Jones (editor in chief, 2004-present), Randal C. Jarrell (managing editor 2003-present), and an array of talented writers and artists.
In 2003, Nozemack teamed with film producer Eric Gitter to form Closed on Mondays - a media production company created specifically to help Oni Press creators and titles find life in mediums outside of comics.
