IWF: Intergalactic Wrestling Federation

Read IWF #1 for free online.

IWF: Intergalactic Wrestling Federation is a high-energy, over-the-top blend of sci-fi spectacle, pro wrestling bombast, and retro comic book storytelling. Created as a sharp contrast to the darker tone of Ethos: Heroes Lost, IWF embraces absurdity, action, and pure entertainment, delivering a universe where alien warriors, larger-than-life personalities, and interstellar corporate rivalries collide inside the ring.

The story features Carlos Ortega, a man wrongfully accused of a crime and sentenced to fight to the death in the IWF. He is transformed by a bizarre prison accident into the super-powered wrestler Tu Muerte and must battle his way through the deadly Intergalactic Wrestling Federation while fighting to save his family and overthrow the corporate tyrants who rule the galaxy.

The series launched with a successful Kickstarter in 2023, followed by Issue #2 in 2024, quickly building a loyal audience drawn to its bold visuals, dynamic story, and tongue-in-cheek tone.

Both issues are available now through the R.L. Black online shop for collectors who want the full print (and digital) experience. At the same time, the first two issues are being made available for free on this site. The first issue is available today, with the second coming soon.

This is just the beginning. The IWF universe continues to grow, with new issues in development and more intergalactic mayhem on the horizon. Sign up for my newsletter to find out about new releases in this series.
