ABOUT THE COMIC:

Legendary writer Larry Hama and the late M.D. “Doc” Bright’s final work is presented for the first time at BOOM! Studios in THE CENTER HOLDS! A superhero series that questions the very nature of what it means to be a hero in a giant-sized first issue!

A new superhero universe is born!

In a world where superheroes have become commonplace, heroes are required to join a union or else face serious financial liability for the damage caused during battles.

Enter the Superheroes’ Union: A team-up of genius Scyber, psychic Lakshmi, the mysterious Keeper, and child prodigy Nekkotron, among others, as they battle villains and bureaucracy alike.

And though the delicate balance of mitigating damage while saving lives is already tough enough, they’ve got their own worries with a constant stream of villains rising up to challenge them.

BOOM! Studios and Larry Hama are proud to be donating 2% of net sales from THE CENTER HOLDS to The Hero Initiative in honor of M.D. “Doc” Bright’s memory and legacy.
