BOOM! Studios was founded in June of 2005 by Ross Richie and Andrew Cosby. They were named "Best New Publisher of the Year" by Wizard Magazine just four months after their début. The company initially specialized in horror and sci-fi genres. Its first comic published was Zombie Tales. They have since branched out to include superhero comics such as Mark Waid's Irredeemable and the upcoming Soldier Zero, The Traveller, and Starborn in conjunction with Stan Lee's POW Entertainment. Boom! also publishes many titles based on Disney/Pixar properties (such as Wall-E and Toy Story), Jim Henson's Muppet characters, and ZOOM!, an imprint aimed at young readers. BOOM! Studios also became the first comic book company in history to offer a digital download of a comic book on the day and date of its print release.

Mark Waid served as Editor-In-Chief and later CCO of the imprint, while also writing some of its titles. He stepped down from his post at the company in early 2011, but as of May 2011, continues to write multiple titles for BOOM! Studios.
