Blatant Comics

Blatant Comics is an independent American comic book publisher founded in 1997 by Chris Crosby with Randy Faucheux III and John Waupsh III (who later left to pursue other exploits). Blatant is known for publishing parody comic books such as Sloth Park, XXXena: Warrior Pornstar, and Dead Sonja: She-Zombie with a Sword, and humor comics like +EV and Impeach Bush!. On May 5, 2007, as part of Free Comic Book Day, Blatant ventured into less humorous subject matter with a straight horror comic called Last Blood.

Blatant's titles are distributed to comic book stores by Diamond Comic Distributors. Back issues are available through Mile High Comics.
