Boltz

Boltz burst onto the Bronze Age indie comics scene in 1984, courtesy of creators Bill Black and Rod Whigham, debuting in the pages of Bolt and Starforce Six #1 from AC Comics — one of the scrappier, more adventurous publishers of the era. This compact catalog presence across Space Ark, Bolt and Starforce Six, and Starforce Six Special puts Boltz in colorful company alongside the likes of Brooklyn, Barker, Captain Stone, Slinx, and Kitty, suggesting a lively ensemble corner of the AC universe. With only four appearances on record, Boltz is a genuine rarity — the kind of character that rewards the dedicated digger who loves unearthing the hidden gems of 1980s independent comics.
