Pusher

Pusher is a student character from the Freshmen series, set at a college where an accident grants a group of freshmen bizarre and often absurd superpowers. Pusher navigates campus life alongside an eccentric ensemble of newly empowered peers.

Pusher burst onto the Modern Age scene in 2005, debuting in the preview issue of Image Comics' Freshmen — a series that brought a fresh, irreverent energy to superhero storytelling. Created by Hugh Sterbakov and Leonard Kirk, this character navigates a world shared with a colorful cast including Renee Bellochio, Brady Lee, The Beaver, Puppeteer, and Annalee Rogers, making Freshmen one of the more distinctive ensemble books of its mid-2000s moment. Across Freshmen, the Summer Vacation Special, and the Freshmen Yearbook, Pusher carves out a consistent presence in this compact but devoted corner of the Image universe. With only 13 catalog appearances, this is a gem for readers who love discovering the hidden personalities that give a series its texture — the kind of character that rewards fans willing to dig into something a little off the beaten path.
