For more than 25 years, Scott O. Brown has been working in the comic book industry as a writer, letterer, editor, and publisher. Through Bronco Ink Comics, Brown has combined his professional experience with his love of classic superhero storytelling, bringing readers entertaining adventures filled with action, humor, and larger-than-life characters.
Born and raised in rural Alabama, Brown developed an early fascination with comics. His professional career began in 1999, and over the years, he has contributed to numerous comic books and graphic novels. His work has earned Harvey and Independent Publisher awards, establishing him as an accomplished professional in the industry.
Brown’s lettering credits include English-language editions of popular manga titles such as Ghost in the Shell, Battle Angel Alita, Vinland Saga, Blue Lock, and Initial D. This experience has given him a broad understanding of storytelling, visual presentation, and the importance of combining words and artwork to create an engaging comic.
Founded in 2014, Bronco Ink Publishing was established to showcase different styles of comics and storytelling from creators around the world. The company’s philosophy centers on creator ownership and giving independent talent an opportunity to bring original ideas to readers.
Unlike traditional publishers that acquire intellectual property rights, Bronco Ink operates under a creator-owned model. The company states that creators retain ownership of their characters and stories while benefiting from publishing and production assistance.
Bronco Ink also provides professional services, including lettering, editing, formatting, and assistance with creative development. Brown’s extensive industry experience provides an important foundation for these services.
One of Bronco Ink Comics’ signature creations is Super Team International, a superhero series celebrating the energetic storytelling of the Bronze Age and the 1980s.
Launched in 2020 as Super Team International ’88, the series was written by Brown with artwork by Carlos Gabriel Diaz.
The story follows a collection of superheroes who have all the powers and colorful costumes readers might expect, but not necessarily the teamwork or common sense needed to save the world.
The team’s roster includes The Super American, Gamma Rei Burst, Mr. Sleep, Rollerblade, Lt. Flag, and Mr. Chicken. Together, these unlikely heroes face the King of All Evil Dragons and his villainous organization, V.I.L.E.
While the characters possess extraordinary abilities, their greatest challenge may be learning to work together without causing more destruction than the villains themselves.
The series combines superhero action with affectionate satire, capturing the outrageous fun of classic comics while offering a humorous perspective on the genre.
Rather than relying on grim storylines or excessive violence, Super Team International embraces colorful characters, spectacular battles, and entertaining storytelling.
The original six-issue storyline was subsequently collected in Super Team International Volume 1, published in 2025.
Brown has continued developing the Super Team Universe beyond its original storyline.
In 2024, Bronco Ink introduced Super Team International Annual: Bug Wars, a 56-page adventure combining superhero action, horror, humor, and intrigue.
The series has also continued with new adventures, including The Neverending Nightmares of Mr. Sleep. In 2026, Brown launched a Kickstarter campaign for Super Team International #8, continuing the storyline and expanding the shared universe.
These projects demonstrate Brown’s commitment to building an independent superhero universe that can continue growing through new stories and characters.
Bronco Ink Comics is not limited to superhero adventures.
In 2023, Brown and co-writer Andrew Foley introduced Threads, a 96-page, full-color graphic novel that combines science fiction, horror, fashion, and B-movie humor.
The story centers on sisters Phoebe and Devin Strand, whose ambitions in the fashion industry take a bizarre turn when an alien fabric enters their lives.
What begins as an opportunity becomes a threat to their relationship and potentially the entire world.
With artwork contributed by Russell Hossain, Stuart Chaifetz, and Mike Shoykhet, Threads demonstrates Bronco Ink’s willingness to experiment with different genres and storytelling approaches.
