Rare Earth Comics

Welcome to Rare Earth Comics! Based in Hartford, Connecticut, REC is proud to publish the work of some of the hottest artists entering the industry. All the staff members are Connecticut natives, giving the company a sense of hometown pride. Rare Earth Comics is dedicated to producing titles with gorgeous art, captivating writing and thought-provoking concepts.

REC was founded in the summer of 1998. Our first foray into publishing was the sci-fi space opera "The Channel Guard". This story, featuring the superb talents of Sheldon Mitchell and Jeff Wamester, followed the political turmoil of a galactic empire and the adventures of its super-powered protector. It was followed by the anthology series The Rare Earth Chronicles. This series offered different artistic teams the chance to explore individual stories in a one-issue format.

Rare Earth Comics is now proud to present its most ambitious and exciting project. . . Shadow Tracers! Bringing the focus closer to home, the creators tell the story of four teenagers from Hartford whose lives are turned upside down. While working on a school history project, the characters stumble into a web of deception spun by a criminal syndicate. It will take all of their wits and courage to get out in once piece. . . and when they do there’s still homework to finish!
