The Crusaders revival barrels on, backed by a new video game and Toxic Avenger movie! Tarred as terrorists, Toxie and his teammates pursue Mister P, a covert extraterrestrial invader posing as a finance exec—who seeks to serve his masters by manipulating the world economy into permanent oblivion.
On September 26th, the world comes together to observe World Environmental Health Day. The environment is at even greater risk today as the most basic guardrails are being stripped away. Executive orders as well as elevated individuals are assaulting the little gains that have been made over the years and attacking communities negatively impacted by pollution and thus attacking their health and well-being. Editors Joe Corallo and Molly Jackson have partnered with A Wave Blue World to bring a new vision of our future in a benefit anthology for environmental causes, Crisis on Our Only Earth.
World Environmental Health Day takes place on September 26 and declared by the International Federation of Environmental Health. This year’s theme is “Clean Air, Healthy People.” The goal is to help promote awareness and action on the impact of clean air on public health, and addressing air pollution, climate change, and respiratory diseases. The first yearly event was held in 2011 to raise awareness about the connection between environmental quality and human health.
Crisis on Our Only Earth is a graphic novel anthology that features a mix of rising stars and seasoned pros in the comic book industry telling stories about important environmentalists, the origins of Earth Day, small steps we can take to make our world a better place, as well as genre stories incorporating themes of activism.
A Wave Blue World has pledged to make a donation to the Natural Resources Defense Council matching the net proceeds of the sales of the anthology. NRDC is an international organization promoting environmental advocacy through science, litigation, and green business practices.
Contributors include Danny Lore, Rio Burton, Bernardo Brice, Sabs Cooper, Ashlynn Barker, Adam McGovern, Chase Bluestone, Edwin Lopez, Lane Lloyd, Martha Thomases, Kate Zimmerman, David Pepose, Chris Shehan, Taylor Esposito, Trina Robbins, Fabian Lelay, Gab Contreras, Peter Carlsson, Mindy Newell, John K Snyder III, Bernardo Brice, Beth Rimmels, Michiums, Devin Grayson, Magda Price, Corinna Bechko, Gabriel Hardman, Barbara Randall Kesel, Diana Leto, Catrina Brighton, Regine Sawyer, Rodney Sanon, Molly Jackson, Christie Shinn, Annie Nocenti, Ameziane, Sina Grace, Rus Wooton, Alexander Lu, Sweeney Boo, Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou, Juan Ponce, Haley Boros, Keith Frady, Claudia Aguire, Catherine Ducket, Stuart Moore, Mark Wheatley, Carol Wheatley, Joe Corallo, Eric Palicki, Emily Pearson, and Matthew Kaplowitz.
Publishers Tyler and Wendy Chin-Tanner of A Wave Blue World know how important this mission is, and with their history of publishing critically-acclaimed anthologies, including Young Men in Love and Becoming Who We Are, make them the perfect home and advocates for Crisis on Our Only Earth.
The anthology will be released first digitally on September 26th as a pdf download which can be purchased on AWBW.com. Additionally, it can be purchased or read through subscription service on A Wave Blue World’s digital partners including Amazon Kindle, GlobalComix, and ComicsPlus on LibraryPass.
A limited print edition is expected sometime in 2026. You can support NRDC and their mission directly by visiting their website at nrdc.org.
