1st printing. Written by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Raymond Obstfeld. Art and cover by Ed Laroche. In this stunningly illustrated graphic novel, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's life as a social justice advocate comes to life through the story of a high school student whose promising basketball career is in jeopardy. Monk Travers is the star basketball player on his high school team. Confident about his future as an NBA player, he doesnt see the point in caring much about school, let alone his community. But his world is about to change—big time! After getting caught graffitiing his team's rival school, Monk comes to the awful realization that his actions have put his place on the team—and his future—in jeopardy. Hes taken by surprise when his coach offers him an unorthodox way to atone: completing a report on the life of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Monk is ecstatic. He knows all Kareems records and stats. He smugly announces that the project will be a snap, but his excitement is short-lived when Coach tells him that the project is not about Kareems basketball career—its about his life as an advocate for change. As Monk grudgingly begins his research, he discovers a history of struggles, conflicts, frustrations, and violence that hed never been aware of, awakening a passion for social justice that rivals Kareems own. Authored by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar himself, alongside longtime collaborator Raymond Obstfeld, and vividly illustrated by artist Ed Laroche, CHAMPION highlights and celebrates Kareems work for good like never before, inspiring fans of all ages.

Story and art by Josh Hicks.

Step into the ring at Glorious Wrestling Alliance, the universe's least-professional wrestling company.

The Great Carp, an amphibious wonder, is feeling the weight of his championship. Miranda Fury has donned a mask to smash wrestling's glass ceiling. And Gravy Train is desperate for a new gimmick, but it's hard when you're shaped like a giant gravy boat. Collected in colossal full color for the first time, Josh Hicks's cult-hit comic covers identity, anxiety, and leg drops.

In this hilarious love letter to the surreal theater of pro wrestling, the insecure grapplers of GWA lock up, throw things, throw each other, and occasionally curl up into little balls.

Volume 1 - 1st printing. Written by Jordan B. Gorfinkel. Art and cover by Scott Benefiel. Introducing a new kind of super-hero from the DC Comics editor and writer who masterminded Batman's No Man's Land saga. With his super-strength and endurance, the costumed crusader known as Champion protects the city of Urbana Falls from supervillains and ordinary criminals. But being a super-hero doesn't pay the bills, and with a wife and child to support, Champion - in his secret identity as Michael Midas - makes ends meet as a garbage collector. Even with all his super-abilities, Michael finds being a husband and father more challenging than beating up bad guys. Torn between fulfilling his great responsibilities to his family and his city, he wishes Champion had the power to correct the mistakes of his past - and fix his two lives once and for all.
