Americomics

    (AC, 1983-1984)
™ Americomics, ©1983 AC Comics

April 1983 saw the debut of Americomics (AC), along with the premiere issue of this, their vanguard title. The first issue introduced Roger Brant, a man who has learned to unleash an astral projection of himself known as Shade to fight evil. Shade continued through the series, along with such characters as the Slayer, the Messenger, and Captain Freedom & the Liberty Corps.

AC also picked up the rights to reprint several unpublished stories from the defunct Charlton Bullseye. AC began running these with Americomics #3. AC also rescued Charlton characters Captain Atom, Blue Beetle, Nightshade, and the Question from obscurity, bringing them together in a special edition of Americomics. Several of these characters were later acquired by DC.
