Bluewater Productions

The first iteration of Davis's company started in 2001 as a production studio at Image Comics, where its founder Darren G. Davis developed the company's signature series 10th Muse and The Legend of Isis. This iteration came to an end with the company declared bankrupt in 2003.

Davis's revived company, then known as Bluewater Productions, became a publisher in May 2007 with the signature series Ray Harryhausen Presents, which was produced in conjunction with filmmaker Ray Harryhausen until 2009. Other signature series, including Vincent Price Presents, produced in conjunction with the daughter of the actor Vincent Price, and William Shatner Presents, with actor William Shatner, followed.

The company signed a deal, in 2009, to republish the Rock 'N' Roll Comics series from defunct publisher Revolutionary Comics. The deal ended in 2013 after seven volumes with an eighth left un-published.

In 2011, Bluewater began a collaboration with The Graphic Classroom, which resulted in the creation of free lesson plans to tie-in with the company's series of biographical comics.

Bluewater became a pioneer in digital-first publishing in January 2012, with the release of its Gabby Giffords and Mitt Romney bio-comics on the Nook and Kindle prior to their print versions.

Bluewater ended its distribution deal with Diamond Comic Distributors in 2012 after several of their titles were canceled for not meeting the sales benchmarks. Distribution was taken over by Comic Flea Market, which operates a print-on-demand service. Following this Arcana Studio bought up the majority of the company's non-biographical original content, including 10th Muse and Legend of Isis.

A name change to StormFront Media/Publishing in 2015 followed a television production deal for their property Insane Jane which required the company to differentiate itself from another production company of the same name. A second name change to Storm Entertainment later that year was undertaken in order to end any confusion of the company with the controversial Stormfront message forum. This rebranding coincided with a change to a digital-centric business plan.

The company regained its original name TidalWave Productions in 2016 and has been publishing through Ingram and various other distributors. They produced titles such as Female Force, Stormy Daniels: Space Force, Force of the Trojans, Soldier of Fortune, Juliet, Dorian Gray, Political Power and others. They are represented by The Bohemia Group in Los Angeles.
