These are indie superhero comics from Marc Antony Comics, an independent comic book publisher. Every hero here was created in house, so the powers, the villains and the cities are all original. If you have read the big publishers for years and want something new, this is a good place to start.
The heroes on this page are male leads: a Harlem gym teacher who rides out in custom armor, a prosecutor saved by a celestial entity, a son of Zeus protecting New York, a courier who wakes up alone on a space station, and more. The stories mix street level action with science fiction and horror, and each issue is built to be read in one sitting.
If you are hunting for the best indie comics you have not read yet, every book here has a free preview of the cover and first 3 pages, no account needed. All Access unlocks the full issues, plus every female superhero, sci fi and horror series, for $7.99 a month. New issues release on the 15th of every month.
Hollow Pines High is coming down on Monday, but first the class of 2006 gets one last party inside its condemned halls. Paramedic Dana Whitlock returns against her better judgment, carrying a twenty year old secret about the cruelest prank the school ever pulled.

Somewhere behind the sealed woodshop doors, a saw is spinning, and class is back in session.
For twenty years Lodestar has guarded the world, and for twenty years he has never lost. Then a sleek social platform called Null asks one quiet question of every screen on Earth: what has he ever really done for you?

When a bridge over the Allegheny begins to fall, the whole city is watching, and every phone is ready.
Relay courier Kade Okafor has made the jump so many times that four years of travel feel like a blink. This time he wakes in a freshly printed body on Proxima Station to find the lights failing, the receiving bay empty and no one left to say hello. Something in the dark knows his name, and it remembers his childhood better than he does. Kade has to find out who is still alive on Proxima before whatever is hunting him finishes the job.
Long ago in Athens, Zeus walked among mortals as a traveler and left Athena Mylonis with a son born beneath the thunder.

Antonio Forza is the son of a notorious mobster who chose the courtroom over a life of crime.
