Captain Action

A Modern Age revival steeped in classic adventure spirit, this Captain Action burst onto the scene in 2008 from Moonstone Books, kicking off with a bold #0 issue that set the stage for a run lasting into the early 2010s. Sharing the pages with a compelling cast that includes Cole Drake, Miles Drake, Sean Barrett, and Action Boy, the series clearly delights in building a rich ensemble around its central hero. Across titles like Captain Action Comics and Phases of the Moon: Full Moon, Moonstone crafted an action-packed corner of the Modern Age worth seeking out for fans of pulp-inflected superhero adventure. It's a compact but passionate run — exactly the kind of hidden gem that rewards the dedicated back-issue hunter.
