Hero Trade: Hero For Sale (TP)

The world’s most dangerous superhero has been sold to the highest bidder.

When a shadowy government asset known as the Hero Trade vanishes, whispers of black-market superhuman trafficking spark chaos among the powerful. Somewhere between vigilante justice and corporate corruption, a trail of bodies, secrets, and dead-end leads emerges—each pointing to something far more terrifying than one rogue meta.

Crafted by Matt Kindt (Mind MGMT) and drawn by crime comics legend David Lapham (Stray Bullets), this gritty, slow-burn thriller uncovers the dark side of heroism—where powers are bartered like weapons and the line between savior and seller disappears.

Collects the complete Hero Trade storyline including Hero Trade 2, Bootleg, Live or Die, and Hank Howard, Pizza Detective. Published under the iconoclastic Bad Idea banner, this 224-page volume is packed with behind-the-scenes material, concept art, and essays from the creators.
