April 10, 2009

AC Comics goes back to 1969 when Bill Black founded Paragon Publications. Paragon did a name change in 1982 to Americomics, but in 1984 it became AC, where it has stayed. Publishing out of Longwood, Florida, the publisher is best known for Femforce, a team of superhero women. The characters themselves are a mix of public domain and original creations. AC Comics has also reprinted many classic Western and Golden Age comic books (that have fallen into the public domain) into collected editions.
