Tribe (comics)
Tribe was a short-lived comic book published first in 1993. Created by Todd Johnson and Larry Stroman, Tribe launched as part of Image Comics' second round of titles and with sales of over one million copies is still the largest selling African American comic produced by African American creators. Although Tribe had been intended as a series it was canceled due to publishing delays.
Axis Comics later printed two more issues (2,3) of the series before itself going under due to financial difficulties. The final issue (0) was published by Good Comics.
Special edition white covered copies of the initial issue, signed by both Johnson and Stroman have sold on ebay for as much as $300.

Famous quotes containing the word tribe:
“I want to celebrate these elms which have been spared by the plague, these survivors of a once flourishing tribe commemorated by all the Elm Streets in America. But to celebrate them is to be silent about the people who sit and sleep underneath them, the homeless poor who are hauled away by the city like trash, except it has no place to dump them. To speak of one thing is to suppress another.”
—Lisel Mueller (b. 1924)
