The Details

heroically

Milestone Comics launched in 1993 with the vision of creating a new universe of Black Super Heroes. In 2020, these iconic characters reemerged with new stories for a new generation.

To honor the spirit of Milestone and celebrate its return, Ally and DC Comics teamed up with Muros to bring new voices and perspectives to the world of Super Heroes through The Milestone Initiative program.

Together we handpicked three amazingly talented Black artists to create three original murals in Charlotte and Detroit. Each artist effortlessly rose to the challenge of telling the Milestone story through their own unique, inspired lenses.
