Welcome to the world of FORCE (Football Operations Rated Championship Elite), created by Shawn Pryor, B. Alex Thompson, and Jay Reed, published by Action Lab Entertainment.

FORCE opens a new era of sports-drama series to comics, blending the hyperactive action on the field with the personal drama that takes place behind the scenes.

Creator Shawn Pryor comments, “I’m a big fan of football films such as Any Given Sunday andVarsity Blues, enjoyed sitcoms/dramas like The Game and Ballers, and I’ve been wanting to do sports comics for a very long time. FORCE is the first in a long line of creator-owned sports comic projects that B. Alex Thompson, Jay Reed, and I can’t wait to get into your hands.

Shawn goes on to say, “I also wanted to make sure that we could get this book into the hands of as many readers as possible, so the content is rated for ages 12 and up. It’s a great series for those who enjoy sports and have never read a comic book before, those who read comics and enjoy sports, or those who don’t watch live sporting events but really dig ESPN 30 for 30 documentaries.”
