First seen in Captain America #117, Sam Wilson was a street-savvy crime fighter on the neighborhood level. The Falcon quickly teamed up with Captain America, and by #134 the cover proclaimed a new title: Captain America & The Falcon, which became the first black and white duo in superhero comics.
About 17 years ago, way before he ever dreamed up his highly enjoyable, crowdfunded Savage Sasquanaut, writer-color artist Wes Hartman teamed up with Gold Digger’s Fred Perry to unleash Sky Sharks. The five-issue adventure was told with a manga-ish flare in a dieselpunk style (like steampunk, but a different level of technology). For all its trappings, though, it was Hartman’s self-professed love letter to Dave Stevens’ Rocketeer.
Harley Creed spent years in prison and when he got out all he wanted to do was make sure his estranged daughter, Maybelle, was okay. But his hometown in West Virginia wasn’t exactly welcoming and someone put a curse on him, giving him seven days to live. Since then, Harley has been working his way through the Weaver gang to end the curse by killing whoever set it up in the first place.
The First, aka the evil leader of cartoons, believes Oliver is the chosen one and plans to drain his blood with a special dagger to keep cartoon world from fading into nothingness. Oliver has been captured and is being held in the First’s big spooky castle.
It’s been 13 years since Orin McCabe, an average suburbanite, snapped and murdered his whole family. As he waits on death row, his old house has drawn the interest of ghosthunters who believe that it could be haunted.
Green Hornet has tracked Silver Shrike to the nearby forest and is poised for a nasty confrontation with his old friend and mentor turned villain. Shrike delivers a speech about his vision for what being a hero truly means, then finally reveals his plans to a shocked Green Hornet.
Following the Liberty Legion four-part crossover in Invaders #5, Marvel Premiere #29, Invaders #6, and Marvel Premiere #30, which reintroduced a number of Timely Comics characters, writer-editor Roy Thomas and pencil artist Frank Robbins got back to creating new original characters the following issue.
The short-lived, cult classic Atlas-Seaboard line of full color comic books and black and white magazines is...
All of the bold characters and raw, kinetic energy that made the original Youngblood #1 the symbol of the early days of Image Comics are on display here, but with more polish and sophistication. With creator-writer-artist Rob Liefeld regaining control over the characters, this new, 33-years-later version of the team is crackling.
The Free Comic Book Day issue is a preview of the Superman’s Good Guy Gang graphic novel written and illustrated by Rob Justus. It’s definitely made for kids, complete with Saturday Morning Cartoon jokes and physical gags, but isn’t so over the top that adults can’t also enjoy the child-sized adventure.
From Spider-Man to the Fantastic Four to Star Wars, Marvel offered several different titles for Free Comic Book Day 2025. Their Marvel Voices entry featured five stories that traveled from Chicago to Wakanda.
Free Comic Book Day presents comic readers with the opportunity to find new titles that they haven’t read yet or ones with which they are unfamiliar. That was the case for me with Mark Spears Monsters #0, and I am very happy I grabbed it.
