Fadi’s journey in the comic industry is nothing short of remarkable. Since acquiring the rights to Captain Canuck in 2024, he has reimagined the character for a new generation while staying true to its roots. Under his leadership, Lev Gleason Publishing—formerly Chapterhouse Comics, rebranded in 2021—has become a powerhouse for Canadian creators. With imprints like Comic House and New Friday, Fadi has championed diverse voices and expanded the company’s reach with a U.S. office. His latest projects include a striking Captain Canuck comic variant cover celebrating Canadian values and ambitious animated and live-action adaptations in partnership with Lev Gleason Studios, VVS Films, and Muse Entertainment.
During his talk, Fadi shared behind-the-scenes stories of building a modern superhero universe, from navigating creative challenges to fostering collaboration across media. His advice to MTM students resonated deeply. He encouraged aspiring artists, writers, and entrepreneurs to embrace their unique perspectives and take bold risks in their craft.
Fadi’s visit was a reminder of the magic that happens when creativity meets purpose. MTM College is grateful for his generosity and looks forward to seeing how our students carry forward the inspiration from this incredible day.
