Hand-crafted comic books™
The Force Media makes independent comic books in collaboration with great artist partners. Our audience is you: the comic book lover that wants a fun escape into the fantastic world of fiction and adventure.
Our 1st book, CruZader™: Agent of the Vatican
CruZader was published in 2013 and launched via Kickstarter, Diamond Comics Distributors, and ComiXology. CruZader broke the Guinness World Record for Largest Comic Book Published in 2014, bringing international acclaim to the project.
Our rated-PG, retro SciFi story: Lunar Ladies
This started as an 9-page short story in the Not Forgotten Anthology, published in 2017 via Kickstarter. The Moon Girl stand-alone story funded as an 88-page graphic novel on Kickstarter, and now it is published as The Lunar Ladies by Scout Comics.
Our most current project: Major Thomás
A 100-page script was recently completed for our next project: Major Thomás. It is a coming-of-age tale about an immigrant farm boy that grows up to become a NASA astronaut, then gets lost in space. It is inspired by the real-life story of astronaut Jose Hernandez of Stockton, Calif. The full graphic novel is slated for publication in 2022 and will be pitched to various publishers in the industry.
