Buckeye

Buckeye burst onto the Bronze Age indie comics scene in 1983, debuting in Americomics Special #1 courtesy of creators Dan St. John, Greg Guler, and Matt Feazell — a collaborative spark from AC Comics, one of the era's most spirited independent publishers. With appearances across Americomics Special, Bolt and Starforce Six, and FemForce Special, this character moved through some of AC's most energetic corners, sharing adventures with the likes of Samson, Nightowl, Belladonna, Gard, and Bolt. Six catalog appearances may sound modest, but two of them carry key-issue status — a remarkable ratio that makes Buckeye a genuine target for collectors hunting the overlooked gems of 1980s indie comics. If you love the scrappy, anything-goes spirit of Bronze Age independents, Buckeye is exactly the kind of discovery that reminds you why digging through back-issue bins is always worth it.
