introductory price of $9.99, exclusively in comic shops.
The fan-favorite phenomenon returns in a brand new ongoing series! Meet the Meta Legion, the world’s foremost faction of crime-fighting capes.

From rising star writer Grace Randolph (Marvel’s NATION X, HER-OES) and hot new talent Russell Dauterman, GRACE RANDOLPH’S SUPURBIA is a unique new twist on the superhero genre that appeals to both diehard fans and readers completely new to comics. New stories, new characters, new drama... Don’t miss out on what Bleeding Cool called “The Superhero Comic We’ve Been Waiting For”!
"We're so excited about this first issue, we decided it would be best to release it for the biggest shopping day of the year - Black Friday!” explained creator and writer Grace Randolph, “Plus since Supurbia is all about superhero families, what better time to read such a book than a holiday that's all about family - Thanksgiving! And you can give thanks that you can buy five issues - the first trade collecting the limited series and #1 - for just fifteen bucks!"
