Archaic is an American comic book series created by writer James S. Abrams and artist Brett Marting.[1] The series is published through Fenickx Productions LLC and saw its debut at the 2005 Comic-Con International in San Diego.[2] The comic itself is an epic fantasy adventure containing many references (both in mythology and language) to Slovakian lore. Many of the characters names as well as certain phrases are taken from Slavic languages as well. Since its creation Archaic has gained a rather large amount of attention in the American comics community. The series has earned several award nominations, such as Golden Chazzie nominations for Best Ongoing Series and Best Artist for 2006.[3] Wizard Comics Magazine rated it number 4 in its 2007 top 40 indie comics.[4]
