The popularity of skins that both personalize and protect our modern electronic devices is growing by leaps and bounds. Dark Horse Deluxe, an imprint of Dark Horse Comics, and manufacturer GelaSkins have teamed up to launch a new collection of special designs for this contemporary platform. Dark Horse announces that the first designs featuring the original art and characters of director and artist Tim Burton are available now.

Dark Horse Deluxe has a long-standing licensing relationship with Tim Burton for his most personal work, the fascinating group of characters created for his book The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy and Other Stories. The art and story have inspired a range of figures, toys, journals, and other collectibles that bring the characters alive and have been dubbed the "Tragic Toys for Girls and Boys".

The new products take the technological tools that are now ubiquitous—laptops, computers, cell phones, and related other electronics—and turn them into a hip palette for personal expression while serving the useful function of protecting them from wear and tear.

"We have been planning this new platform for some time," Dark Horse vice president of sales, marketing, and licensing Anita Nelson remarked. "We are proud to have Tim Burton's strange and wonderful characters as the centerpiece. We are so pleased he likes the designs and think fans will agree."
