Interview with Kaleidoscope

Hero Works Publishing was founded in 2023 by owner Matt Lamb and the Bottle Works Ethnic Arts Center. Our objective is to publish comic books out of the hometown of Steve Ditko, co-creator of Spider-Man, in Johnstown, PA .

At Hero Works Publishing, our vision is to connect authors and illustrators and provide publishing opportunities for local artisans while honoring the creators that have already come out of Johnstown.

Our first publication, The Legacy of Captain Bottle Works, was written by Leonard Schwartz. We plan to connect with a diverse group of talented authors and artists on future publications.
