Apocalypse Ltd was a short-lived publishing company formed out of an alliance of Pat Mills, John Wagner, Alan Grant and Kevin O'Neill. Apocalypse was an offshoot of Neptune Distribution, based in South Wigston, Leicester. Apocalypse was meant to provide titles such as Mills and O'Neill's Marshal Law (originally published by the Marvel Comics imprint Epic Comics) a way to avoid dealing with the big companies such as Marvel and DC Comics. All of Apocalypse's titles were creator-owned; the most notable title being the weekly comic Toxic!. Neptune also owned Trident Comics,^[1] which printed black-and-white comics by mainly new, unpublished creators.
