Second Sight Publishing’s No Other Gods Warns of the Dangers of Fascism Heading Into the 2022 Midterm Elections

Posted on August 29, 2021 by Graphic Policy Team

Second Sight Publishing is definitely changing things up with their newest series announcement! No Other Gods is a five-issue mini-series set to be released just after July 4th, 2022 and will conclude just a few days before the 2022 midterm elections in the United States in November of the same year. The series is set in a world with enhanced powered beings but other than that tale of fantasy, the series is grounded in the reality of a politically divided nation.

No Other Gods is co-created by Chuck Satterlee (writer) and Neil van Antwerpen (artist). The series will be colored by Mickey Clausen and lettered by industry legend, Tom Orzechowski. Variant covers by Michael Avon Oeming and Steven Bryant have been announced.

Rod Espinosa Helps Launch Second Sight Publishing’s Children Line

Posted on May 10, 2021 by Graphic Policy Team

Rod Espinosa, artist and writer on award-nominated titles such as The Courageous Princess for Antarctic Press, which earned him a nomination for the Eisner and Ignatz award in 2000 and 2002 respectfully. Have signed his two children titles, Steampunk Snow Queen and Steampunk Snow White to launch the children’s line called Playground for Second Sight Publishing.

Steampunk Snow Queen, is Rod Espinosa’s take on the very popular Disney movie Frozen. This Tale will be based in a Steampunk world, but all the mythos and plots will be very reminiscent of the hit movie. The second title is Steampunk Snow White, much like Snow Queen, this title too, derived from the famous tale Snow White.

You can order these titles out of the Playground line from Previews in August 2021.

Second Sight Publishing Donates 1000 Comics to the Polk County School System

Posted on April 30, 2021 by Brett

On April 29th, 2021, COO of Second Sight Publishing, Marcus Roberts, donated 1000 comic books to the Polk County School System. The books will be distributed throughout the school library system and used throughout the summer program.

Second Sight donated copies of Book of Lyaxia and Lady Freedom whose creators reside in Florida. Aron Pohara lives in Tampa, and Larry Jarrell resides in Orlando.

As Second Sight Publishing publishes entertainment for kids of all ages, Roberts saw this as an opportunity to provide an alternate reading source to help strengthen the reading skills of students.

Second Sight Publishing was created by Bradley Golden in 2016 and began building on an early catalog of horror comic stories. As he developed his own personal brand he signed on with Antarctic Press and brought his stories to a larger audience, as well as meeting other creators/writers like John Crowther, Larry Spike Jarrell, and Peter Breau. All the while teaming up with Marcus H. Roberts and launching Mississippi Zombie, published by Caliber Comics.

Second Sight Publishing is striving to build a catalog of new, intriguing, exciting and enjoyable titles that draw in our readers and keep its fans engaged.

Review: The Edge #1

Posted on March 24, 2021 by Alex K Cossa

Infected by the super steroid The Edge, Revenant is on a rampage to eliminate Richard Tartabull. Can the strike team placed between them stop Revenant? Or will they all spread the infection of The Edge further?

You’re going to know whether The Edge #1 for you almost entirely by the front cover; there’s an almost eye-catching image of a hero standing at the door with a team behind him. The cover is largely pink, purple, and red, with the title being lost amidst the art, and the characters along the side blending in almost indistinctly with each other.

If you like the image, you’ll probably enjoy the comic, whereas if the cover doesn’t really interest or excite you, then you’re not going to find anything inside to change your mind.

The Edge #1 isn’t a bad comic in any way, but rather it’s a book that just falls flat. The story is okay, though nothing particularly brilliant nor original. That’s never a requirement for me to enjoy a book, but if the story and plot are familiar then the characters within need to stand out. These don’t. While the story is familiar, the dialogue is serviceable – at times stilted, were it not for the speech bubbles pointing to the character speaking, I’d be unable to distinguish who was supposed to be saying what.

Likewise, the art doesn’t really stand out, either. It’s better than anything I could do, and I am well aware of this, but there seems to be a lack of a certain spark or magic to the proceedings. It’s perfectly serviceable, and does nothing to make the comic any poorer, but nor does it elevate anything either.

This may sound like I didn’t enjoy The Edge #1, that I’m ragging on it just to rag, but the book isn’t actually bad – it’s just that for me it is not a particularly exciting comic, but it is one that’s worth a read if you’re interested in a superhero team book from an indie publisher. Hopefully, things click a little more for me in the second issue.
