About Pounds of Power
Johnny, an overweight nerd, becomes an unwitting test subject in a corporate experiment that unlocks the stored energy in his fat cells, thereby granting him temporary superhuman abilities. However, what at first seems like a dream come true may be a Faustian bargain in disguise. Only with the help of his friends can Johnny defeat the evil that lies ahead.

Antarctic Press
Comic-booking since 1985
Antarctic Press has been "comic-booking" since 1985, publishing the coolest creator-owned comics on Earth — just like their name promises. Founded by brothers Ben and Joe Dunn and proudly based in San Antonio, Texas, Antarctic Press is driven by one mission: creators and fans must win in the world of comics.
Over the decades, Antarctic Press has published thousands of titles across every imaginable genre, from cult classics like Ninja High School, Warrior Nun Areala, and Gold Digger to breakout works by now-established creators. Many artists and writers got their start here — including Eisner-nominated talents — and continue to call Antarctic Press home.
The company is best known for "Amerimanga" and creator-owned comics, as well as guides that help emerging creators sharpen their skills. With more than 5 million comics in circulation and 850+ titles (and counting), Antarctic Press remains one of the most enduring independent publishers in the industry.
All creator-owned. All fan-focused. All about making awesome comics.
