Issue #1The universe begins

Not every hero fights criminals. Some fight the diseases that threaten us all.

By day, Eddie Collazo is a Medic One paramedic based in Seattle, answering 911 calls when every second counts. But when illness strikes, he becomes Pulse, a superhero who enters the hidden battlefield inside the human body, confronting diseases transformed into powerful supervillains.

From overdoses to septic shock, PTSD to catastrophic trauma, every enemy Pulse faces is inspired by real emergency medicine. Armed with courage, compassion, and the knowledge of a street medic, Pulse fights where ordinary heroes can't, turning real-world illnesses into unforgettable adventures that entertain, educate, and inspire.

Because the greatest battles aren't always fought in the streets. Sometimes they're fought inside us.

Pulse

The story begins.

Read the synopsis

On the streets of Seattle, Paramedic Collazo and his partner respond to a devastating overdose—one that quickly becomes a fight for survival.

When conventional medicine reaches its limit, Collazo is pulled into a hidden battlefield inside the patient’s body, where Dr. Fent, a deadly embodiment of the opioid crisis, has taken control. As the patient’s condition deteriorates, Collazo must fight from within while his partner works desperately to keep them both alive.

Issue #1 launches a medical superhero universe where emergency medicine, human anatomy, and comic-book action collide—and every second can mean the difference between life and death.

Rupture & Reckoning

The battle intensifies.

Read the synopsis

Paramedic Collazo and his partner respond to a patient suffering sudden, severe chest and back pain. The symptoms initially resemble a heart attack, but Collazo recognizes something far more dangerous: the patient’s aorta is tearing apart from within.

Becoming Pulse, Collazo enters the patient’s body, where the dissection has manifested as a brutal villain known as The Butcher. As The Butcher cuts through the walls of the aorta and disrupts blood flow to vital organs, Pulse races to contain the damage before a catastrophic rupture becomes fatal.

Outside the body, Collazo’s partner fights to stabilize the rapidly deteriorating patient and reach definitive care in a desperate race against time.

Matt and Kiki: Dead on Arrival issue one cover, overlooking Albuquerque at night
Dark comedy · forensic noir

Everyone has a motive. Even the dead.

Matt & Kiki: DOA is a sharp, darkly comedic forensic mystery set against the neon-lit streets of Albuquerque, New Mexico. Inspired by an actual sheriff’s CSI detective, the story pairs the brilliant and intensely methodical Dr. Matt with Kiki, his towering seven-foot partner, whose reckless theories and smart-mouthed humor clash perfectly with Matt’s disciplined approach.

When Sally Romero is discovered stabbed inside her home, the evidence seems straightforward—until every new clue points in a different direction. With no signs of forced entry, several suspicious weapons, and friends, lovers, and enemies hiding secrets, the investigation becomes far more complicated than a simple homicide.

Classic noir narration, authentic forensic investigation, supernatural tension, and outrageous comedy collide in a mystery where nobody is telling the full truth—and even the dead may have something left to say.
