While ongoing comics are not the biggest markets for smaller publishers, some do still offer great selections with a variety of titles. Publishers like Mad Cave Studios and Oni Press each have solid lineups of comics by plenty of established names in comics. Then rising publishers like Vault Comics will surprise you with their unique offerings of stories that you won’t find anywhere else. As much as publishers like Image Comics and BOOM! Studios lead the charge for creator-owned comics, you’ll be surprised by how many more great books there are to discover out there.
