Comico Comics
May. 31st, 2004 07:24 amI'd been maning to write this article for a LONG time. I kinda put it off because I didn't have time, but when I finally sat down to write it, I realized it was because I was dissapointed.
Before I go on, here's the Wikipedia article about Comico Comics I wrote:
( The History of Comico Comics )
It was a really hard write...back in 1985, I was reading virtually every title they published. Robotech, Mage, Grendel even the smaller Justice Machine, Jonny Quest and Elementals titles.
They printed a book in 1987 called the Black Book. It was a five year retrospective of the company, and it was wonderfully put together. When I saw how they treated their artists and the stories they were telling, I decided RIGHT THEN I was going to be in the 10 year retrospective book in 1992. Sadly, in 1990, they ceased to exist.
It was a tough write, because, well, I kinda felt like I was part of the Comico team. Seeing their collapse really hurt, and along with the Antarctic Press antics in the early 90s, really discouraged me from doing comics.
God bless the Internet. :)
