Approbation Comics is an independent comic book company whose main goal is to bring graphic illustrated novels to a wider, more mainstream audience. They enjoy celebrating diversity with a variety of genres and usually stay away from superhero material.

History

Created by writer/artist Bart A. Thompson (also credited as Bart Thompson, B. Alex Thompson, and/or Alex Thompson) in 1992, Approbation was named from the Latin root meaning "approval" which he found by searching a thesaurus.
