About the series

A dark fantasy series from Caliber Press’s 1990s indie boom, The Realm ran 13 issues exploring a world where magic and monsters lurk beneath a modern veneer. Brian Michael Bendis and Donald Marquez anchored the art, bringing a gritty, atmospheric style to this cult-favorite blend of horror and adventure. It stands as a early showcase of Bendis’s storytelling range before his rise to mainstream prominence.
