Read about The Sovereign

Here is another ad for "The Arcadia Anthology" comic which features Michael Powell's Arcadian hero "The Sovereign". This piece was created by Arcadian artist Sean Harley.

A Banner Bonanza!

In anticipation of our promotional blitz next month, The Collective artists have begun producing web banners. Here is a small sampling of what we have so far. These will certainly go a long way in helping us spread the word that The Age of Arcadia is upon us!

Ominus!

After laying out Chapter 2 of my story, I decided it fitting to post a character profile of Ominus, the "dark knight" archetype in my little comic book universe.
To enlarge the image simply click on it.

Look for Ominus' first appearance in Chapter Two of Sovereign's story in the Arcadia Anthology #2.

Who Is Sovereign?

Imagine the archetype of the mighty superhero, the otherwordly savior of humankind, faster than a speeding bullet and able to soar higher than any plane.

Now imagine his female counterpart, the immortal warrior princess from a far away land of myth.

In a bygone era they represent justice, and on many occasions they join together to protect the planet against unimaginable threats.

Now imagine what goes on behind the scenes.

A passionate love affair ensues, and unbeknowst to the the mighty superhero, a child is conceived.

The princess disappears, determined to raise her child in secret, away from the violence and injustice of mortal man's world.

The child is named Aleksandr. He is raised by his mother in an island paradise, ignorant of his lineage, or the real reason he is so powerful.

In a moment of tragedy he learns the truth.

And so Aleksandr, now a man, ventures to the outside world in search of the father he never knew existed.

But he soon discovers another disturbing truth...

His father, the savior of humankind, once known the world over as Sovereign...is dead.

Lost forever to his mother's land and people, how does he find his place in a strange new world?

What does he do with himself? How does he honor his father's memory?

The answer...

He continues the fight where his father left off.
