Indie Comics Spotlight March 19, 2025

The Comic Source

Jace talks about a few of the Indie books he got a chance to check out for the week of March 19, 2025. Power Fantasy continues to be one of the best comics out currently and it’s latest issue introduces us to the final Superpower we haven’t seen before, Eliza Hellhound. The debut of The Last Boy extrapolates the idea of Peter Pan as the boy who never wants to grow up to the extreme as it examines what happens when everyone around him has moved on and left him behind. Bug Wars #2 ramps up the action with some fantastic art and pacing, plus just wait until you see the bug version os Syd! The Deviant closing out in a satisfying manner, even considering the momentum it lost due to being so late. Rocketfellers is the perfect example of how to give a large case time to shine in each issue as the story moves forward, but never forgets to give some space to add development to each character. Gunslinger Spawn gets one step closer to the man he believe kidnapped his sister, but just how much will he be outnumbered by when he confronts him? Join us to hear about all these books and more, plus a rundown on other titles you might want to be on the lookout for.
