Fearless Dawn

Steve Mannion’s Fearless Dawn, published by Asylum Press across four issues from 2009 to 2010, is a high-octane homage to the pulp heroes and B-movie monsters of the 1940s and ’50s. Written and drawn entirely by Mannion, the series follows its eponymous heroine through a lurid world of fisticuffs, jetpack chases, and atomic-age oddities, all rendered in a bold, cartoony style that blends cheesecake with chaos. It stands as a pure, unapologetic celebration of retro genre thrills from a singular creator.
