Action Planet Comics

Mike Manley’s Action Planet Comics (1995–present, Action Planet Comics) is a self-published, creator-owned anthology series that showcases a rotating lineup of original characters and genres, from superheroics to sci-fi and humor. Running just two issues, it stands as an early, personal example of the 1990s indie comics boom, with Manley handling both writing and art duties throughout. The series matters as a snapshot of a veteran artist’s passion project, offering a raw, unfiltered glimpse into his creative range outside the mainstream.
