The Awakened
THE AWAKENED is a dark, noir-ish superhero murder mystery that explores what the true definition of power is, and who should wield it. Welcome to a world very much like our own, populated by a small handful of super-beings. The series focuses on a government-sanctioned team of super-heroes, The Freedom Alliance, and their beloved leader Paragon. Though everything seems to be just fine from the outside, the man behind Paragon’s mask realizes there are dark forces moving against him, his team, and the world itself. What does it have to do with the disappearance of the insanely-powerful being known as Avatar? When a hero falls, the world is left shaken – and one regular person must make the riskiest decision of their lives to protect the people they care about.
A character-driven superhero epic in the vein of The Golden Age, Supreme Power, Black Hammer, and Astro City, it is collected here in TPB format for the first time!
Thunder Guardian
The Earth has been destroyed. Civilization has been scattered throughout the solar system. The future of humanity has only one hope– THUNDER GUARDIAN!
Join father-son team of Reilly Brown (Deadpool, Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point) and Will Brown (grade schooler) as they tell the story of Thunder Guardian and his friends, and their battle against space pirates, monster boogers, and the forces of the evil Unknown!
For the past two years Will (currently in the 3rd grade) has been designing characters and telling stories to his comic book artist father, Reilly, who has been drawing them as comic strips for the newspaper A Kid and A Comic. This book collects those adventures in one place for the first time, and includes additional brand new material as well. Here’s what the contents will be:
18 pages of the original comic strip, 3-5 pages of a new story, 3-5 pages of a story where Reilly writes it and Will draws it, 2-4 pages of character bios/stats, 2-4 pages of process stuff (like Will’s sketches of characters and Reilly’s interpretations)
For fans of DEADPOOL, who are looking for something equally humorous and action-packed, but maybe they can share with the kids in their life who have a more DOG MAN sense of humor. Similar to AXE COP, but with superheroes. If you like aliens and space pirates, this book is for you. If you like monster boogers, this book is especially for you.

ShiverShock
A Webtoon about a group of adventurers trying to not get killed at work.
On the planet Trio, people are known as Dolls with the ability take on alternate form based on objects an animals. Dolls have powers that range from, transforming into clouds, gorillas, ice, flowers, and even cars. The world and its inhabitants were created by beings simply known as Gods.
In this world we follow a family known as the Surgares who lead a group known as ShiverShock, that go on adventures for Gods. These brave few have adventures that range from being stuck on an island full of monsters, doing a noir detective story, or even having a battle royale with every member of the troupe.
Our lead is a young orphan named Orbis, who is adopted into the family for reasons even he doesn’t understand. He’s had an unlucky life: he only has one arm, his powers are slightly unstable and he’s a crybaby.
Kandy is an Ectoplasm Doll. She’s Kake and Kookie 21-year old sister. She sees herself as the mentor to the group even she’s not trusted enough to be in charge.
I’ve actually already started on the comic, but I consider this a prototype and intend to reboot it as I’m unsatisfied with how it turned out. I commissioned various artists on Fiverr and Upwork to do the artwork while I wrote the scripts. The artists gave a limit on how many characters I could use for each chapter and I often couldn’t afford backgrounds. I would like to make the comic as I envisioned it.

WHAT IS THIS NIGHTMARE?
When We Were The Voyage is more than a graphic novel—it’s a 200-page descent into sci-fi horror, where flesh is twisted, memory devoured, and reality itself begins to fracture. This is a book where cosmic nightmares and unrelenting horrors peel away the mask of humanity and reveal the grotesque truth beneath.
FEATURES OF THE VOYAGE
200 Pages of Dreadful Artistry
Two hundred pages. Each one seethes with nightmares, tearing apart the delicate boundary between sci-fi and horror. These pages are not merely illustrations—they are an invocation, a ritual bound in ink and pain. Every frame demands your attention, claws at your sanity, and refuses to let go. No respite. No escape. You’ll feel the weight of each image pressing into your mind, leaving impressions that cannot be erased.
Two Years in the Making, Bound by Blood and Sweat
This isn’t a product of convenience. This is obsession. For over two relentless years, the creator, Eric Williamson, has sculpted a universe of despair, painstakingly building layer upon layer of horror. This is the culmination of sleepless nights and sacrifices, carved into the very pages of the book. And now, after years of meticulous crafting, it hungers to meet its audience. It hungers to meet you!
One Vision, Twenty-Three Corrupted Artists
At its core lies the chilling vision of one creator. But the artistry doesn’t stop there. 23 artists contributed their talents, each dragging the story deeper into chaos. Every contribution shifts in style and tone, ensuring you’re never safe, never settled. Each page is a new layer of Hell.
A Brutal, Hardcore Sci-Fi Horror Experience
This is not horror for the faint of heart. This is horror that strips you bare, that forces you to confront your deepest fears and your most fragile humanity. Imagine the cold precision of a scalpel carving through flesh—that is the story. Brutal, calculated, and unrelenting, it will eviscerate everything you thought you understood about the genre. It’s not just horror—it’s a relentless autopsy of your soul.

The Adventures of Pom Pom & Fleur
A 12 year-old girl and her pugnacious Pomeranian are abducted by dastardly aliens hell bent on human experimentation!
A children’s tale subverted for adult readers…
What could be more family friendly than a COSMIC romp involving a decent little girl and her Pomeranian? Unless of course, it’s a tale involving neglectful parenting, youthful impulsivity, and a cynical Pomeranian on a collision course with alien abduction! This is the tale of young Fleur and her loyal companion, Pom Pom.
The Protagonists V The Antagonists
Meet Fleur, an idealistic, vegetarian, fiercely independent, and politically aware 12-year old with an aversion to guns and crass commercialism. She’s fearless, headstrong, and has a knack of getting herself into heaps of trouble.
Say hello to Pom Pom, Fleur’s faithful but ill-tempered, foul-mouthed, and socially-regressive, furry friend. What Fleur is to ecologically-minded pursuits, Pom Pom likes straightforward solutions to problems with absolutely NO GREY AREAS.
And introducing… The mysterious scientific duo from the research and experimentation division of the Zwarg Empire – Doctor ‘K’ and Urim! These dastardly fellows have some very definite ideas about maximizing productivity… which, involves deeply unethical, human clinical trials of their mysterious medications!
The Adventures of Pom Pom & Fleur (Episode 01) is a funny, heartwarming story of resilience, loyalty, and the true meaning of friendship. United by an intangible bond of love and… survival, you couldn’t wish for a more polarized duo in Fleur and Pom Pom. Sometimes, the best team-ups are people (and animals) who make the unlikeliest of comrades!
Barbed humor rooted in classic Sci Fi storytelling:
In the leafy heart of rural England, an Alien research vessel happens upon the curious Fleur and her trusty little pal Pom Pom. Swiftly kidnapped from their tranquil environs (along with a Bessie the cow) Fleur is selected to be used in a LIVE CLINICAL TRIAL for a mysterious extraterrestrial SERUM and its life-altering capabilities! Meanwhile Pom Pom is earmarked as THE MAIN COURSE on the starship’s menu. Both are threatened with abjectly horrific outcomes and they have to rely on each other to avert that old (but still effective) trope: a fate worse than death.
