From Brainkandy to Krakom

September 1, 2025

“Every story deserves a path — from first spark to the moment it finds its audience.”

Brainkandy is where our stories are born. Krakom is where they take flight. One creates. The other amplifies. Together, they form the full journey: from idea to world, from world to reader.

The Role of Brainkandy

Brainkandy is our forge. It’s where we write, edit, and consult. Where characters are carved, worlds are built, and drafts are tested until they hold their weight. When a story is strong enough, it’s ready for its next stage: Krakom.

The Role of Krakom

Krakom Studios is our publishing engine. It takes the IP we develop at Brainkandy and releases it into the wild: print, digital, audio, and beyond. Through Krakom we market, promote, and share. Brainkandy builds the fire, Krakom carries the flame.

Forging Alliances

Krakom doesn’t move alone. We’ve built alliances across the creative industries to give our stories reach and resilience. In comics, GlobalComix positions us as ambassadors to the international indie community, while ComixWellspring powers worldwide print-on-demand. In publishing, Gardners Distribution connects us with bookshops and libraries across the UK. In retail, Forbidden Planet champions our visibility through events and presence on the high street.

Beyond publishing, we collaborate with filmmakers, editors, and producers to shape adaptations for screen and audio. These relationships extend the life of our stories and open new routes for the work we support. Together, they form an ecosystem that ensures every story - whether comic, novel, poem, or screenplay - has a clear path to its audience.

Building a Pipeline

The connection between Brainkandy and Krakom is more than workflow. It’s a pipeline, proof that ideas can be crafted into valuable IP and adapted across mediums. By showing what we can do with our own work, we set a model for others. Creators can follow the same path, or join ours directly, from finished concept to monetised story, start to finish.

Ideas become worlds when imagination is matched with the means to share them.

A Complete Path

From Brainkandy to Krakom, our stories don’t stop at the draft stage. They move, they adapt, they find their audience. This structure gives every project we create, and every project we support, a clear path from creation to connection. Brainkandy begins the story. Krakom carries it forward. Together they ensure that every idea has the chance not just to exist, but to live.
