About the series
In the mid-1990s, Image Comics unleashed NewMen, a 21-issue series that ran from 1994 to 1996, driven by the creative energies of Rob Liefeld, Eric Stephenson, and artist Jeff Matsuda (who also co-wrote). The book introduced a team of super-powered characters—including Adam Booth, Derrick Rowland, Byrd, Dash, David Proctor, and Exit—navigating a world of high-octane action and Image-style bombast. With Todd Nauck also providing art, NewMen stands as a snapshot of the era's bold, creator-owned storytelling, showcasing Matsuda's distinctive visual style before his later fame. It remains a key entry for fans exploring the early, chaotic energy of Image's second wave.
