The Fourth Rope, Volume 1 (Graphic Novel)

Wrestling is the most popular sport in the universe, and Intergalactic Wrestling Extreme delivers that thrill on a galactic scale. In a shattering move, owner-promoter I.B. Skeamon absorbs rival leagues, bringing the galaxy’s top wrestlers under one umbrella. The competition heats up as an ascending-order system promises the chance to unify all five belts and claim the legendary title of “The Ultimate Warrior.” Volume 1 of The Fourth Rope follows these ambitions through a fast-paced, space-fueled drama that blends sports spectacle with sharp character moments. Penned by Marcus-Kwabena Johnson and featuring coloring and storytelling collaboration from Johnny O’Bryant, the book launches a series that fuses action, world-building, and a bold voice for underrepresented creators. At 110 pages, it invites readers into a vivid, high-stakes arena where destiny, loyalty, and grit collide.
