About Us
Freefall Comics is more than just an Australian-based independent comic company. We are a passionate group of creators who listen intently to our audience, always on the hunt for what the industry is missing. Our mission is to fill those gaps with groundbreaking stories and characters that leave a lasting impact.
We take pride in crafting new, original, and compelling narratives that are full of real depth. We aren’t afraid of controversy or pushing boundaries, always venturing where others have feared to go. In our debut series, “Roundhouse Hooligans,” we introduce several powerful female protagonists. These characters were not created with a conscious decision to make them female leads, but rather, they organically emerged as part of our creative process.
At Freefall Comics, we’re not content with generic, cliché superheroes that currently dominate the market. Frankly, we’re bored with them. But that doesn’t mean we write controversial content just for the sake of it. Every topic we tackle serves a purpose, driving the story forward and developing our characters.
However, it’s not all serious business. We love having fun with our characters and putting them in wild and hilarious situations. At the end of the day, our comics are a form of escapism – a way for us and our readers to indulge in fiction, fantasy, and adventure. Join us on this exciting journey and experience the magic of Freefall Comics for yourself.

We promise to always put you first and create stories that will leave you wanting more.
2. ALWAYS BE TRANSPARENT
At Free Fall Comics, we understand that perfection is unattainable and mistakes are bound to happen. As owners of the company, it is our responsibility to take accountability and work towards finding solutions to any issues that arise. We are committed to being upfront, honest, and transparent with our fans and keeping them updated on any problems that occur within the company and the steps we are taking to resolve them.
We also believe in sharing the process of what it takes to create our comics. By being transparent with our fans, we hope to make you feel like you are part of the process and inspire you to chase their own dreams. We’ll be fair and respectful in answering any questions you may have. Our goal is to create a community where everyone can enjoy great stories and the business of comics in a fun and welcoming environment.

As creators, our primary goal is to produce content that holds value and keeps you invested in our stories. While it’s impossible to please everyone, we hope to create characters and worlds that resonate with you and leave you wanting more. We firmly believe in quality over quantity, which is why we refuse to compromise on our vision by cutting costs or rushing the process.
We understand that the wait between our releases may be longer than anticipated, but we can assure you that each new book will be well worth the wait. We invest heavily in finding the best artists for each project and spare no expense to ensure that every aspect of the book is of the highest quality.
Our commitment to excellence is evident in the fact that we have already invested over $30,000 of our own money into this company. We believe in our product, and we are confident that you will too. Our stories are unique and diverse, and as avid readers ourselves, we know that only the best will suffice. So, we will continue to produce only the best products possible.

Comics are first and foremost a form of entertainment, and while we may explore dark and challenging themes in our content, we never lose sight of the fact that we are human creators who are passionate about what we do. For us, creating immersive worlds and compelling characters is a joyful and fulfilling experience, and we want to share that joy with you, our readers.
We believe in bringing you along for the wild ride, letting you see behind the curtain and be a part of the creative process. So buckle up and join us on this exciting journey!
