Hey, comic fans! The seventh (and penultimate) issue of The Formidables—the eight-part superhero series that I’ve been involved with as editor—is now on sale at online comics distributor IndyPlanet.
Created by writer/artist Chris Malgrain (who also created the series Sideral: The Last Earthman, which I script) through his Oniric Comics company, the Formidables are a quintet of superheroes battling evil and bigotry in 1950s America.
Issue 5 began a new story arc with “The Truth Shall Set You Free,” in which the Formidables and the many other superheroes of the Oniric Universe encounter The Maker, a giant traveler from outer space who’s come to warn the Earth that evil forces have gathered to destroy the planet. In issue 6, they learned whether he was there to help…or to complicate matters. And now, the secret of the Maker and his connection to the alien forces is revealed—and the Formidables may not like what they hear!
The Formidables #7 is available for $3.99 in print and FREE as a digital download, so head over to its product page at IndyPlanet to order a copy. And while you’re at it, be sure to purchase The Formidables #1–6 (also available at IndyPlanet), so you can catch-up on all the fun!
