Frequently asked questions

We create stories in all sorts of different genres. The most effective way would be to look through our catalog for yourself, look at the covers and preview pages, read the descriptions, and just choose whatever vibe suits you best.
The most important thing is to start. There are a few starting points you can choose from. You can start from the very beginning and our very first series (Major Grom, Red Fury, Demonslayer, Friar — in any order), if you’re interested in the roots. But be warned that we’ve grown quite a lot as people and authors since then!
And if you want something more modern than our first attempts, then you can start with our Second Wind series (Igor Grom, Allies, Demonslayer Vol.2, Realmwalkers). Technically they continue from where the original series left off, but are adapted for new readers!
You can also start from Exlibrium or Meteora — those series are in the middle and connect with the others the least. Same for every other series not mentioned here!
Whatever your starting point is — you can continue from there following the numbers on the covers and directions at the end of each issue.
Through our website or the mobile app “BUBBLE. Russian comics” available for iOS and Android. Please note that you can only read our comics through the app. If you want to buy actual printed books or merch — you can refer to the “Delivery” section of the website where we have a thorough instruction for you!
Artem Gabrelyanov, our founder, used to be a big comic book fan as a kid. Growing up, he found it unfair that Russia didn’t have that kind of culture or a comic book publisher on par with western ones. So he decided to start one himself — and that’s how BUBBLE was created.
Any format of storytelling is worth it. First and foremost, it’s an opportunity to rest and find an escape from your daily bothers. But it’s also a way to live through many stories, to find yourself rooting for many heroes, to discover a lot of talented artists and writers. While your eye is pleased to see a well-drawn picture, the act of giving life to a static frame stimulates your imagination, too.
Same as every artistic kind of a text out there — with careful attention to genre, style and cultural nuances.
More often than not comics are drawn by the team of two — an artist and a colorist. The artist creates the initial sketch and clear lineart of the pages, and the colorist is responsible for, well, color. All that in accordance with a writer’s script, of course.
To create your own comic you’ll need to think of a story and its characters, write a script following the plot scene by scene (movie script style, kind of), and then draw it — or find an artist who’ll draw it for you.

About Bubble

There are so many comics available right now, that sometimes finding something new, fresh and high-quality can prove to be a difficult task. Want something you’ve never read before? How about some Russian comics? Introducing BUBBLE comics — the one and only Russian comic book publisher with a whole fictional universe of our own. Just like Marvel and DC, but unmistakably ours, made right here where we live. You can read our comics online through our mobile app — it’s called “BUBBLE. Russian comics” and is available for iOS and Android, or, if you’re feeling risky, you can purchase paperback comics straight from us. We’ll do everything in our power to get your comics to you, because let’s face it — it’s high time everyone started reading them.

WHO ARE WE?

BUBBLE comics is a publishing house that exists since 2011. For ten years we’ve been moving towards one goal and one goal only — to prove that Russian comics exist, that they can be as cool or even cooler than western ones, and that we can create a universe of our own, filled by heroes and locations familiar to every Russian reader (and foreign to the rest of you). And without being humble — we’ve been succeeding in that!

Six main series with dozens of issues, plus some newer heroes whose stories are just beginning, plus complete stories long and short — it doesn’t matter which you prefer, we have it all (and that’s not even mentioning the movie). Let’s all read awesome Russian comics together!

FREE COMICS

Not everyone can just afford to throw their money into the screen before knowing for sure what they are getting. We get that. Some of our stories are already old and can be out of time, some can just not be your cup of tea as they are. But there’s no need to go and google “BUBBLE comics read online for free” or whatever and risk bumping into a virus, into low-quality rip offs or ongoings stuck on whatever issue the pirate stopped updating them on.

Instead, here are the first few issues of our main series for free, completely legal. You can just read them and decide for yourself if you want to actually give us money and continue reading. No subscriptions, no trials, no asking you for your card prematurely. Just take them and read them — and we hope that you decide to stick around!
