When we reflect on 2021, some of our fondest memories are about the new partnerships we’ve built with publishers and creators. Digital comics help break down so many barriers for both the creator and the reader. International shipping and regional distribution costs become a thing of the past, empowering creators to focus on what they do best: making amazing stories.

That’s why we’re excited to announce that Mad Cave Studios is bringing their entire catalog to GlobalComix. You’ve already seen some of their titles – like Crime’s most popular of 2021, Nottingham, and sci-fi’s hit Midnight: Task Force – but now there are even more stories...

Since 2014, Outland Entertainment has shared their worlds through books and games, and they expanded their catalogue in 2017 by acquiring Ragnarok Publications. With a veritable treasure trove of creativity in tow, Outland Entertainment now publish their work as comics, graphic novels, games and fiction.

Amazing stories can come from anywhere. They aren’t confined to the writer’s rooms of Hollywood, the publishing houses of New York or the stages of London. Narrative art can thrive wherever the craft and the vision to create them can flourish.

This reality is even more true in comics, where writers, artists, and editors can collaborate from anywhere in the world to bring you stories from every walk of life.

Source Point Press is a prime example of unique and expansive storytelling. The publisher started in the heart of Michigan but their catalog of horror, science fiction and true crime has grown a worldwide audience of adults and children over the years. Their creators span the...

Comics aren’t just about superheroes. There are as many genres of sequential art as can be found in books, movies, or television. Comics also aren’t just about fictional characters. There is a strong tradition of biography, history, and journalism in the comics medium.

We’re excited to share an amazing new series that you’ll be able to access exclusively through GlobalComix or the publisher’s Patreon. The Jonesey and Dr. Long Adventures, published by Unlikely Heroes Studios, is written by John Pence (The Surgeon, Up from the Skies) and drawn by Maxim Mel (Do Well Camp with Max Bemis, Fractured Scary Tales).

The series is a loving send-up of, and homage to, the two-fisted, gin-soaked, nicotine-stained Sunday comics of the 20th Century with a pretty smooth 1:1 ratio of action and jokes. Comics fans and scholars will see nods to legends like Steve Canyon, The Phantom, or The Spirit, all built in a world of animal characters and...

 Spring is traditionally a period of rebirth and change. It’s a chance to make a fresh start, try out new things, and toss out the old to take a chance on something new.

GlobalComix is embracing the spirit by introducing titles from two new publishers to our growing catalog.



Mad Cave Studios is a comic book and graphic novel publisher specializing in crime, horror, and science fiction. Although it is a relative newcomer to the industry, they have built up a strong catalog over the past six years and their influence continues to grow.

Comics are art and all art is political. The most memorable comics embrace this reality. They use narrative sequential art to convey relevant stories that both speak to the social climate of the moment and serve as a beacon for the future.

A Wave Blue World (AWBW) has been a home for impactful comic book art for over fifteen years. From the New York Times featured books like American Terrorist and All We Ever Wanted to classics like From Hell’s Heart and Phantom of the Opera, AWBW has always focused on socially conscious storytelling and providing a platform for a multitude of creative voices.

GlobalComix is proud to add AWBW to its family of comic book publishers.

From the beginning, the goal of GlobalComix has been working to make amazing comics accessible to everyone, no matter where they’re made, what language they’re in, or how they’ve been formatted. As comics fans who have a deep appreciation for the craft, we understand that the business of making comics can sometimes feel like feast or famine and that other times it can feel like shooting in the dark.

That’s one of the many reasons we partner with publishers like AWA Studios. They have a creative business owned and operated by creators. Their goal is to build a network of graphic fiction that cooperates with each other to better service their readership, make a...
