Bill Black

Bill Black is a fictionalized version of AC Comics' real-life publisher who appears as a character within the FemForce universe itself, stepping from behind the scenes into the stories alongside the heroines of AC's shared world.

Bill Black is one of those behind-the-scenes names that earns a place in the panels themselves — a figure who stepped out of the publisher's chair and into the pages of AC Comics' own FemForce universe, debuting in 1986 at the dawn of the Copper Age. Over a publishing window stretching nearly three decades, he turns up across FemForce, Curse of the She-Cat, and the archival love letter that is Bizarre Thrills: The Paragon Publications Story, sharing adventures with a roster of AC's most celebrated heroines including She-Cat, Tara, and Joan Wayne. With eight catalog appearances and at least one collector-significant key issue to his name, Bill Black occupies a genuinely unique corner of indie comics history — a real personality woven into the fabric of the very universe he helped bring to life.
