->''From the mean streets of Moseley to the oceanfront villas of Diamond Beach, crime affects everyone in Avalon. And the presence of the superhumans known around the city as "specials" hasn't necessarily made life for the average citizen any better, since the local vigilantes are as apt to demand payment for their protection as they are to provide their services for free. The crime-fighting duo of King Ace and Fazer are true heroes, not vigilantes...All Fazer and the big guy are trying to do is make everyday life better for everyone who lives in their city. But even heroes face temptation.''

''Chuck Dixon's Avalon'' is a comic book published by Castalia House under the Arkhaven Comics imprint, in both printed and digital format. It was created in 2018 by Creator/ChuckDixon and Creator/VoxDay and is written, in case you hadn't guessed, by Dixon.

''Avalon'' is a SpinOff of its stablemate, ''ComicBook/AltHero''. It takes place in the same AlternateHistory as its predecessor, and likewise focuses on superhumans, aka 'specials', and their dealings with the Superhuman Protection Council (SPC). It is set in the fictional American city of Avalon, New Jersey, where specials fight against crime with varying motives. Some are mercenaries, some are out for vengeance, some just want to do the right thing.

Like ''ComicBook/AltHero'', the web version of ''Avalon'' was initially published on Website/{{Webtoons}} before being moved to [[https://www.arkhaven.com/ Arkhaven]]. You can read it free [[https://www.arkhaven.com/comics/superhero/chuck-dixons-avalon here]].

* ChekhovsGunman: The first we see of Big Simba is a poster on King Ace's gym wall.
* EmbarrassingNickname: Mindrape dislikes his alias and tells people to call him Elvin.
* FatBastard

* IllGirl: Vendetta's comatose twin sister, Elena. Vendetta regularly sneaks into her hospital room to give her fresh flowers.

* LaserGuidedKarma: Vardanyan leaves one of his floozies at the mercy of Vendetta and flees, only to be [[spoiler:driven full speed by his mind-controlled mook into a truck, killing him]].
* LogicalWeakness:
