Quantum – the comic!
You might already be familiar with Quantum. Originally launched by Time Bomb Comics in April 2023 and edited by Steve Tanner, this British anthology comic can be found mainly in UK newsagents. A mainstream comic with an indie ethos, Quantum features a range of stories from a wide range of talented creators.
Each issue of Quantum also has the same high production values that have become associated with every title Time Bomb Comics releases: matt-laminated, perfect-bound, cardstock covers, heavier interior paper stock to best show the artwork, and each issue running to at least 52 pages.
Within the pages of Quantum you’ll find stories of western horror, steampunks in space, alternate worlds, historical adventure and twisted thrillers. There’s even unique takes on superheroes!
Each issue of Quantum contains 4 or 5 stories. Here’s a taster of what you’ll find in these 4 issues on kickstarter:
