The first original graphic novel from Chimera's Comics about a Chicago superhero's journey before and after a disaster that changes the world forever.
The world once knew Adam as a hero called "the Magnificent." But even superpowers couldn't protect Adam from the pains of growing up - heartbreak, failure, and loss. Now, in the wake of an Earth-shattering cataclysm, a group of mercenaries has captured the young hero. After years of torture and experiments teach Adam his true strength, will he choose to remain a hero - or will the cruelty of the world make him like the monsters he once fought against?
"Magnificent" is an original graphic novel about what it takes to stay true to yourself. This coming-of-age superhero story is packed with over 90 pages of powerful action and equally powerful moments of character unlike any graphic novel you've ever read.
