Lion Forge is moving Superb and Quincredible, two of its Catalyst Prime superhero titles to Roar – its line of comics for young adults.
Superb is a superhero title created by Lion Forge co-founders David Steward II and Carl Reed, who have partnered with the National Down Syndrome Society to offer a correct portrayal of Jonah, a teenage boy with Down Syndrome. Jonah and best friend Kayla have recently developed superpowers, and now they are coming to terms with the changes in their lives. The third volume of the series will be written by David. F. Walker and drawn by Alitha Martinez, and it debuts next month
Quincredible stars high school sophomore Quinton, who moonlights as a superhero. Maya, a member of the neighborhood watch, tries to teach Quinton that he needs to be aware of the consequences of his actions, that even acts of bravery can result in damage and fallout. The series is illustrated by by Selina Espiritu and Michelle Wong. Debut is planned for later in the year.
"One of the cornerstone beliefs here at Lion Forge is that readers should see themselves reflected in the books we publish," Lion Forge CEO and founder, David Steward II said. "Unlike comics’ most established superhero universes, we are not limited by decades of history. Instead, we have the ability to provide teenage comic book readers today with characters and situations they can relate to and grow up alongside as their fandom continues into adulthood."
