Introductions

Artifice Comics Prelude

The second instance of man rising above his own standard involved only one man. Born precisely when the new century came to life, he stood separate from the predecessors and inspired many others to reach beyond the finite. He was indeed the man of the millennium, in ways he did not understand. This is his story, as well as the story of some who came before him, and the wave of followers of the adventure who lived decades after him. This is a touch of the beginning and a hint of the end.

The Imperial Magistrate Saga

Four stories, two heroes, one legacy. From London to Pacific City, this is the unknown history of the Artifice Comics Universe.

Set one year since the first appearance of our two main characters, The Imperial Magistrate Saga offers a staging ground for the new age of the ACU.

Artifice Comics: Year 2

Electronic synapses open and close, signaling a change in perception invoked with but a stray thought. My memory cache opens, displaying the stories and images and memories captured in my processing unit during my 100 years. I see the second Millennium Man, champion of this city during a time of peril. I see Victoria, in her former glory as the heroine known as Mysteria.

I see these images, and my thoughts drift back. Back, to how things were...

Artifice America: Prelude

Hurried military preparations, a sex robot and a mob, a rich adventurous family and spoiled kids with nothing better to do. Welcome to America.

The Cold Academy

Nestled in a small, tranquil township outside of Chicago, The Winterville Academy is home to the troubled children of the country's wealthiest and most powerful families. Part military school and part rehabilitation center, the Winterville Academy is the last stop for the children who could have the world on their fingertips and the first stop for the parents who don't have the time to care. While the rest mindlessly enjoy their imprisonment, a special group of students plot to change the game. They're rich, beautiful, and intelligent. They live and breathe by a unique set of circumstances, one where they know that they could buy invinciblity and what's the most dangerous of all, they're bored.

Humanity

Humanity is a different kind of series, breaking away from the current AC stable and adding its own spin to our original universe. In a nutshell, there will be no single star in this book, and no super hero or villain as its main character. This is the story of the lives effected by supers, not how a super effects a mortal's life.

The Inevitable

To you he's your invitation to a world of action and adventure that you've only suspected existed...

But make sure you don't call him Charalambides Miguel Henderson.

Around here we know him as A MAN CALLED MONGREL
