Lifeforce Comics and Publishing is a publishing company specializing in community awareness materials for pre-adolescents, teens and young adults. Among our most popular publications is the Lifeforce Comic Book Series.
Lifeforce is a comic book series that feature stories based on community and social awareness issues. It is the story of a team of teen superheroes who combat social issues in the form of villains. They are given special powers and abilities to do so and with their knowledge, (all of which are provided by a character called Captain Life) they deliver a message of prevention and information to readers. The heroic characters are designed to show the fundamentals of hope and respect for others. They are given diverse backgrounds to help readers relate to their character. The antagonist characters of Lifeforce are made up of characters based on social issues. Villains such as Agent Drug Abuse, Agent AIDS and Agent Bully are designed simply to make identification easier and comparison between other non-community awareness literature or comics distinct.
Our Goals
Money raised will be put toward the cost of production, printing and distribution of our books, and will help us print a larger quantity. (Printing comics is much more affordable per copy with large print runs!) In addition to sharing a great story, our goal is to get copies of the book into the hands of young people through youth centers, health agencies, and teachers' groups. Printing the book in a large print run will help us distribute free copies of the book to people who need to hear its message.

Originally this series was published by NC Graphics between 1991-1994 with funding from provided by The Chicago Board of Education. The Board approved the printing of 15,000 copies of Lifeforce #1-3, 5,000 of each issue to be distributed to Chicagoland area schools in 1994. Since then, thousands of teens have read and/or read the series in public school health and counselors offices.
Lifeforce has been a source of reference and inspiration to its readers. The series was birthed in 1991 with the vision to help young readers and teens, through comic book art and characters, to remain aware of community and social topics as a means of prevention. Lifeforce Publishing is a collective body of artists and writers that have utilized their talent and time to continue this vision because of its importance to the inner city and its youth. The creators know first hand the struggles teens can go through in school. Most of which, grew up in the inner city and were faced consistently community issues. Our hope is that the Lifeforce Publishing Company and its publications can continue to inspire the youth of today to learn and to set an example of excellence for others to follow.
We rely on the support of readers, schools and community agencies and any donation is welcome.
Thank you
From The Artists and Writers of Lifeforce Comics
