Sideswipe is a new brand of comics created for social media
Sideswipe has reimagined comic books for the social media age. You don’t have to drive to a comic book store, log-in to a website, or even download an app, for great comic book action. Sideswipe delivers our series to you on the social media platforms you’re everyday.
And Sideswipe’s series aren’t just for current fans of comics and manga they are for anyone who loves suspense, sci-fi, or fantasy movies. Click this sample of ASYLUM, a series about a team that investigates the paranormal.

Sideswipe content is optimized for your smartphone
Sideswipe webcomics are built to be experienced on your smartphone. We’re not trying to retro fit content designed for print into your screen. We use larger fonts and artwork, and less panels and pages than conventional comics. OH! and we add cinematic scores to our series to augment the emotion as you read. Check out this sample of a sci-fi series called Genesis Next from our YouTube Channel and see how easy it is to read. You can make it through story in three minutes.
