By: Ric Dawson Along with a host of other new projects, CCA, Comic Company A, or Comici, as it will in addition now be called officially, is re-releasing several issues from it's controversial , ground breaking hit from the eighties and nineties, The Next Man,co created by Roger Mc Kenzie (Ghost Rider) and Vince Argondezzi (Health Care Heroes, Infinity Inc) The ecclectic series covered euthinasia, cancer, and other controversial subjects long before it was acceptable in comics; garnering praise as well as criticism from a variety of different sources, because of the subject matter, from veteran award winner Mc Kenzie, as well as a younger artist Argondezzi's experiments with groundbreaking experimental illustration techniques. As part of the big push of development in the comic and entertainment industry, Comico and Comic Company A helped with a variety of different attempts for creators rights and daring story lines and subject matter. As a co-founder of both companies. Vince Argondezzi finds Next Man a natural fit in the structure of the new oline medium of comics, and the evolution Comic Company A/ Comici is taking. From a recent national press release: June 1 2010: "In the light of America's more recent military conflicts, these storylines and concepts are more important than ever," Argondezzi states. "The super hero has always been a fantastic vehicle, an excellent metaphor for the super heroic efforts and problems that our men and women in the military services have to deal with every day, in war, and after these battles are consumated. Rog and I have used Next Man as an analogy for the journey of these brave folks. It is by their sacrifices and determination that we as artists and free people are given the privilege of exploring the future; it's only through the freedom that they graciously secure for us, can that future and it's positive possibilities also be secure." As Comici led in the past with contributions to the various independents, and creations like Next Man, so will it lead the way in the future, with clasics from the past and bright new stars for tommorrow.
