Approbation Comics logoIn 1992, Bart Alexander Thompson created the first incarnation of Approbation Comics.

In the following years, Bart devoted his time to creating and cultivating characters and storylines, watching trends, and researching the graphic illustrated novel industry. His first full color, Diamond-distributed comic book was Vampires Unlimited: Shades of Things to Come.
