Chasing Gold is a real comic book, printed on paper. I believe it is the first published by the Washington Post. It's the story of Alexandria, VA native Noah Lyles, a track and field competitor.

20 pages long. Story by Rick Maese and Adam Kilgore, art by Andy Belanger, inks by Cary Nord, coloring by Tatto Caballero, lettering by Serge LaPointe, art direction by Joe Moore, editing by Matt Rennie and Virginia Singarayar, copy editing by Scott Silverstein.
