Black + Calexit – Free Comic Book Day 2021 delivers a bold and thought-provoking double-feature that perfectly represents the socially conscious storytelling of Black Mask Studios. This special edition, created for Free Comic Book Day, brings together two of the publisher’s most resonant titles: Black and Calexit—both known for tackling real-world issues through gripping speculative fiction.

In the Black universe—originally created by Kwanza Osajyefo and Tim Smith 3—superpowers exist, but only manifest in Black individuals. This sampler teases the wider implications of that world, spotlighting themes of systemic control, resistance, and identity, all through a raw superhero lens. It’s a perfect entry point for those new to the groundbreaking Black AF series.

On the flip side, Calexit introduces readers to a fractured, near-future America where California secedes from the union in defiance of an authoritarian regime. Created by Pizzolo and Amancay Nahuelpan, this story captures the urgency of protest movements and civil defiance, offering an intense, street-level look at rebellion and survival in a country on the brink.

This FCBD 2021 issue is more than a promotional piece—it’s a compelling showcase of what independent comics can achieve when unafraid to challenge the status quo. Whether you’re exploring these worlds for the first time or completing your collection, this edition is a standout.
