Where New Legends Are Born!

About Me

Wizard World LA 2007 interview with Nifty Comics founder and creator of CADRE, Mat Nastos
Nifty Comics is one of the leading independent comic book publishing companies in the US.
Diamond Comic Distributors called the Cadre "the sort of saga that got you hooked on comics in the first place," and "a great team comic for fans suffering from X-Men or Teen Titans withdrawal."
BITE ME, FANBOY: Our first movie and DVD release. Available for purchase NOW!
Read what the critics are saying:
Before you see Batman Begins, see Bite Me Fanboy first. Bite Me Fanboy will become a cult comic book classic!
-- Paul Dale Roberts, Jazma Universe Online
Destined to become a cult classic, BITE ME, FANBOY is a textbook case of run, dont walk if I ever saw one. Get a hold of a copy or all of the cool people will be laughing at you!
-- Joshua Clarkson, JetRag Monkey
"...Hilarious" and "the sort of comedy anyone can enjoy."
-- Dexter K. Flowers, Broken Frontiers
