Heroic

Don Martinec’s Heroic is a single-issue meditation on the nature of heroism, published by Lightning Comics in the late 1980s. Written and drawn entirely by Martinec, this self-contained story distills the era’s fascination with deconstructing superhero tropes into a tight, personal narrative. While brief, it stands as a distinctive artifact of its time, offering a creator-driven take on the genre’s core themes.
