COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., May 12, 2026 /Standard Newswire/ — On July 7, 2026, Crux Comix, the visual storytelling imprint of David C. Cook, will release three groundbreaking graphic novels from award-winning creator Dr. Barron Bell and writer Daniel Hancock: DOMINION: Fall of the House of Saul Volume 1, DOMINION: Fall of the House of Saul Volume 2, and Radio Free Amerika: Welcome to the Third World. These titles deliver epic sci-fantasy, bold visual storytelling, and big ideas—giving families a safe, cinematic alternative to mainstream entertainment.
DOMINION: Fall of the House of Saul Volumes 1 & 2 invite readers into a mythic universe inspired by the biblical book of 1 Samuel. Created and illustrated by Dr. Barron Bell, with story and script by Daniel Hancock, DOMINION reimagines ancient drama in a galactic setting filled with cosmic battles, prophecy, and a fractured royal family. The saga explores faith, pride, loyalty, and hope through cinematic visuals and allegorical depth, captivating fans of Star Wars, epic fantasy, and families seeking compelling, faith-driven adventure.
“DOMINION is an excellent alternative to mainstream entertainment, as in, whole families can enjoy this comic book adventure,” said Bell. “We hope that readers will have their imaginations ignited and be drawn to explore these stories with a new sense of wonder.”
Expanding on that vision, Hancock adds, “These stories aren’t meant to simplify truth, but to draw readers deeper into it—inviting them to experience the tension, the questions, and the meaning for themselves.”
Radio Free Amerika: Welcome to the Third World, written and illustrated by Dr. Barron Bell, delivers a gripping dystopian adventure. Set after a global conflict, DJ Mose B becomes the voice of resistance, using music and courage to unite a fractured America under occupation. The series explores identity, justice, and resilience, resonating with young adults, educators, and genre fans.
That same commitment to immersive, meaningful storytelling carries into Bell’s Radio Free Amerika, which shifts from cosmic epic to grounded dystopian reality. “Radio Free Amerika was born from a question Dr. Bell asked, “What happens to America’s inner cities if World War III erupts? When foreign boots hit American soil, everything changes… unlikely heroes rise—teachers, mothers, even nightclub DJs discover something inside that screams… fight.”
All three graphic novels feature high-quality artwork and layered storytelling, offering a family-friendly alternative to mainstream entertainment without sacrificing depth or scale.
