==History==
=== Forming Eclipse View Comics===
After gaining Moonlake's blessing before the sisters left the company in April of 1994, the Hines sisters were inspired to form their own comic book company to creatively show their projects with their own ways. However, they needed to think of a name and a good mascot. Whitney first suggested the name to be Sunset View Comics and was intended to be the name for the comic book company. However, when the sisters watched the solar eclipse of May 10th, 1994, Felisha insisted that it should be named Eclipse View instead of Sunset View with Whitney immediately liking the name more than the name she came up with, so the name was sticked.
It took nearly 3 months to lease a building for them to make it the Eclipse View headquarters. However, eventually, on September 3rd, 1994, it was founded and the next thing for them to do was to think of a perfect mascot. Ideas included a pufferfish person (who was decided against and was replaced by a sea creature to make it more fun), a tight skirt-wearing athletic girl (who eventually became Lacey Carter of Scribble It Up!), twin fashionista girls (who eventually became Jovah and Jovie Van Holsen of Brains and Beauty), a genie (which would end up inspiring Genie vs. Genie), a Horseman of the Apocalypse (which ended up becoming War, which would become their second project) and a solar eclipse-eyed mole. Eventually, they sticked to the sea creature because he ended up becoming the one that fascinated the Hines the most. It took them months to think of a good concept for him, which would go on to become Eclipse View's first comic book series they did, Gills! and becoming the mascot comic book of the company.
In addition to Gills! being their best seller IP by date, the other best-selling IPs include War, The Fashionable Besties, Scribble It Up!, Hip Hop Ninjas, Brains and Beauty and Rodent Odyssey.

*While the company was founded in 1994, it had a prototype logo until it revealed the finalized logo that would be the first logo used from 1995 - late 2000.
*The Hines sister implemented a strict rule that the people are not allowed to use A.I. as their main tool, although they did say using A.I. as some sort of tool for reference purposes is fine but using it mainly crosses the line for them. It also shows that the comic company are also shown to be against A.I, even mocking it.
*The company is also shown to be against NFTs.
