Night Masters

    (Custom Pic, 1985-1987)

The sci-fi premise of alien assassins, artificial intelligence and warrior cyborgs are no stranger to the world of self-publishing. If independent titles aren’t focusing on adult themes (sex, drugs, violence) then they are usually tackling this overused genre. The Custom Pic Comics publication Night Masters is no exception to this rule.

Set in the unspecified future, Night Masters follows a group of cosmic adventurers (a costumed human warrior, a female alien combatant and her super strong robot sidekick) as they fight to bring down the forces of Stargull and his evil empire. Think Star Wars meets the JLA.

While the unoriginal plot and black and white artwork leave much to be desired, the title itself stands as a positive symbol of the underground comics movement.
