The panel for the Massive-verse series of books from Image Comics had quite an eventful time at San Diego Comic Con 2023.  The final announcement from the panel was that Massive-verse and Solis Studios had partnered to create a fighting card game powered by the Pocket Paragon system.  The game features 8 playable characters – Radiant Black, 001, Rogue Sun, Cataclysm, The Dead Lucky, Pyre, Inferno Girl Red, and The Griffin.  Each character deck features art pulled directly from the comics with famed artist Dan Mora (Teenage Mutan Ninja Turtles x Power Rangers, Go Go Power Rangers) providing the character card art.

Stay tuned for the upcoming Kickstarter campaign to fund this card game!

The Massive-verse, made up of Image Comics properties Radiant Black (Kyle Higgins), Rogue Sun (Ryan Parrott), Inferno Girl Red (Mat Groom), and The Dead Lucky (Melissa Flores), held their first panel at this year’s San Diego Comic Con 2022.  The panel also featured Cherish Chen (Radiant Red mini-series).  Check out all the details below thanks to Comic Book Keepers (@CBKcast) on Twitter for the details and images!

  • Rogue Sun current story arc ends in Issue #6
  • Rogue Sun Issue #7 is a “Choose Your Own Adventure” issue

  • Introduces Radiant Pink’s love interest Kelly, and their relationship is the heart of the series

The Massive-verse looks to become even MORE massive!

The creators of all the heroes in the Massive-verse have something in common – they’ve all worked on Power Rangers at some point in their careers!  These new heroes have some tokusatsu inspiration in them, one main trait being that these heroes all “transform” (whereas your traditional comic book superheroes just have their suits on under their regular clothes).  Now is a great time to catch up with the Massive-verse and all of their titles!
