We’re thrilled to announce that Lazarus Rising Games (LRG) has officially signed an exciting licensing agreement with Skybound Entertainment, marking a major expansion for OverPower!
Beginning in 2026, characters from Skybound Entertainment’s impressive library will join the OverPower universe. Fans can look forward to seeing beloved characters from Skybound’s hit series, including Invincible, Omni-Man, Atom Eve, and Battle Beast, alongside iconic figures from The Walking Dead such as Rick Grimes, Michonne, Negan, and Maggie.
This partnership with Skybound follows our recent licensing agreements with Top Cow Productions, Inc. and Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., introducing legendary characters such as Witchblade, Darkness, Cyberforce, Tarzan of the Apes®, and John Carter of Mars to upcoming editions of OverPower scheduled for 2025 and 2026.
Retailers will begin stocking new OverPower products featuring stunning original artwork by some of today’s premier comic and illustration talents—including Jae Lee, Jim Cheung, Raymond Gay, Phillip Tan, and William Santos—in mid-April 2025. Fans in the U.S. can find OverPower through ACD Distribution and GTS Distribution, with Universal Distribution handling availability across Canada.
Additionally, we’re excited to share that we’ve established an advisory board featuring industry veterans Ron Perazza, one of the original OverPower game developers, and Paul Bazakas, Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing for GTS Distribution.
In partnership with Carde.io, we recently launched the official OverPower player portal at https://overpower.play.carde.io/. This platform includes an extensive card library for the upcoming Edgar Rice Burroughs set, a fully-featured Deck Builder, National Elo Rankings, an event finder, and a reward shop, offering players an immersive gaming experience.
We are also finalizing preparations for a series of major North American tournaments, boasting more than $100,000 in prize pools alongside exclusive merchandise—stay tuned for announcements regarding these events!
Moreover, we continue to actively showcase OverPower at major conventions nationwide. Notably, we had an impressive interactive presence at the 2024 New York Comic Con, participated in engaging panels at WonderCon 2025 in Anaheim, and will maintain a significant presence at Origins Game Fair in June 2025, along with other prominent gaming and pop-culture events throughout the year. Our recent soft rollout of new OverPower sets has been met with phenomenal response, rapidly selling out two initial sets within months.
