In the far future, humankind is on the brink of extinction. A thousand years after an apocalypse level event known as the Calamity, only small pockets of rough civilization exist. Ruling over Earth are a new race of monstrous beings — The Great Plagues. From Charlie “Moist Cr1TiKaL” White, with stunning art from rising star artist Vamkire Trannel, PLAGUE SEEKER is unlike any comic you’ve ever read.

Magic exists alongside science and technology, and its practitioners dwell in every strata of modern society. Exceptional even among these exceptional individuals is the preternaturally gifted…the iconoclastic…the sarcastic and short-tempered…Marvin the Magnificent!

The Somewhat Incredible Jackie-Boy Man #1

A long time ago, in a galax—no, wait. Gifted with Great Power and Great Respon–nope. Not that either. After a lifetime of fandom and fantasy, Jackie was caught in a strange, cosmic cock-up that gave him amazing powers! …Or at least, ‘fairly impressive physical abilities’? Now, inspired by the kinds of heroes from his favorite comics, anime, and video games, he’s trying to be a real-life super hero in an otherwise ordinary world, as the somewhat incredible JACKIE-BOY MAN!

SDCC 2022: Devil’s Due announces creator-owned titles No Other Goods and The Claims Adjuster

Posted on by

Hot off of the heels of a successful crowdfunding campaign to collect legendary Batman artist Norm Breyfogle’s Of Bitter Souls into a 400 page omnibus, Charles Satterlee continues his return to comics with Devil’s Due Comics’ first new creator-owned titles announced since Covid pandemic lockdowns began.

The Claims Adjustor, created by Satterlee, Neil Van Antwerpen and industry newcomer artist, Laura Helsby, is a dark, psychological story set in a world of super-powered beings. The story features Leonard Scholnick, a claims adjuster for an insurance company that specializes in super-battle-damage. He has seen the toll that these fights take on the innocent… and having experienced loss himself, he has decided they all need to go, hero & villain alike. The series is scripted by Satterlee with story by Van Antwerpen & Satterlee, Van Antwerpen handling layouts and Helsby on pencils & inks. Colors are by Leslie Atlantsky and letters by Chuck Maly. (Elfquest)

The Claims Adjustor

No Other Gods is Written by Satterlee with art by Neil Van Antwerpen, colors by Nicholas Michael and letters by the great Tom Orzechowski (Spawn). Set in the sixteenth year of the reign of America’s first dictator, the Republic has fallen and the heroes of yesterday have been driven into hiding. Recently, a young hero showing glimpses of off the charts power has emerged… and the tyrant and old heroes are in a race to get to him first. NO OTHER GODS is a cautionary tale of tyranny told in a world of super powered beings.
