Lenovations Press Launches Its 25th Title with the Revival of The Avenger, a Classic Crime-Fighting Hero from the Golden Age of Comics Lenovations Press is thrilled to announce their revival of “The Avenger,” a beloved superhero from the golden age of comics. Originally debuting in 1955, The Avenger stands out as one of the few traditional, costumed superheroes created just before the Silver Age of Comics began. The original series, though short-lived with only four issues, remains a prime example of the atomic age’s best work.
The story revolves around Roger Wright, a wealthy scientist and the inventor of the STARJET, a groundbreaking airplane. When spies kidnap his brother to force Wright into surrendering the plans for his invention, he chooses to fight back instead. Taking on the identity of The Avenger, Wright becomes a relentless crusader against evil, dedicated to stopping criminal plots and protecting the innocent.
Lenovations Press is excited to breathe new life into this golden-age gem with a modern twist. In the new series, The Avenger gains a sidekick, Booker Roberts, a photojournalist who aids him in his fight against crime. Booker’s aspiration to document their heroic adventures for a best-selling book adds a fresh and engaging dimension to these golden-age tales.
In This First Issue:
Introducing Rica Roberts, the niece of Booker Roberts. Although Booker has recently passed away, his legacy endures through his films and recordings, allowing him to narrate one of his earlier adventures with The Avenger. The narrative unfolds with two mysterious men breaking into a missile base and launching missiles toward a nearby city. However, the conclusion of this story promises to be anything but expected.
This revival of “The Avenger” also marks a significant milestone for Lenovations Press, as it represents the 25th comic published by the company. Established in May of 2014, Lenovations Press has spent the past decade bringing exciting and innovative comics to readers, cementing its place in the industry.
Lenovations Press invites readers to join The Avenger and Booker Roberts in this thrilling revival, where timeless heroism meets modern storytelling. Get ready for an unforgettable adventure as the classic hero returns to combat crime with renewed vigor. Copies of the Avenger can be purchased directly through the Lenovations Press website, DriveThruComics, and IndyPlanet.
