When you’re looking for a comic that doesn’t feature superheroes, but you still want a little bit of heroing, there are a few options. There’s always the tried and true pulp stories, especially those involving detectives. But another option that’s popular is the paranormal – those gods, wizards and magicians who spend their time saving the day (or life as we know it).

Comics Cosmos – Protecting and Serving
A War Mother protects her habitat and the people who live within it, acting as both warrior and provider. It’s not an easy task in 4001 A.D. when danger is everywhere (requiring fortified cities) and resources are scarce.
