In this engaging superhero comic, Nathan Burnett struggles with adulthood until he discovers the cosmic RADIANT, granting him extraordinary powers. However, he faces threats from cosmic beings and a deadly rival.

Radiant Black, Volume 1: A Massive-Verse Book introduces readers to a fresh take on the superhero genre through the eyes of Nathan Burnett, a thirty-year-old grappling with life's challenges. Stuck in a cycle of dead-end jobs and mounting credit card debt, Nathan finds himself at a crossroads, which leads him to move back in with his parents. Just when it seems like his situation couldn't get any worse, he stumbles upon the mysterious and powerful RADIANT, a cosmic force that presents him with the chance to transform his life.

As Nathan embraces his newfound abilities, he quickly discovers that with great power comes great danger. Not only does he have to navigate the complexities of his own life, but he also faces threats from the Cosmic Beings who created the RADIANT, determined to reclaim their power. Adding to the tension is the emergence of a sinister RED RADIANT, who poses a deadly challenge to Nathan. This compelling narrative combines personal struggle with high-stakes action, making it a gripping read for fans of the superhero genre.

Radiant Black is not just a standalone story; it is the beginning of the MASSIVE-VERSE, a shared universe that promises a variety of characters and stories. Created by writer Kyle Higgins and artist Marcelo Costa, this series sets the stage for a broader exploration of unique heroes like Rogue Sun and Inferno Girl Red. With its engaging storyline and dynamic visuals, Radiant Black invites readers to dive into a vibrant new world of superheroes.
