Sleeze Brothers - Epic comics

I've looked before (here) at the very obscure World of Wym title that was published in 1990. Somehow at the time I forgot to mention the title which the Wym creators are most famous for - yes it's the Sleeze Brothers. A loving nod to the blues brothers? I think so. Lots of scifi silliness here, well worth checking out.

All for sale right here (& in other places too but this is where I got most of the images from)

UPDATED: Clive Barker's 'Hellbreed' - Marvel UK

Michael Carroll's timeline of Marvel UK comics (here) has an array of interestingly short-lived comics on that I thought I should create cover galleries for them. Sometimes this is easier said than done but let's look at the 3 issue Clive Barker's Hellbreed comic from 1995.

UPDATED with a better image for issue 2 and a better image for issue #3.

Clive Barker's 'Hellbreed' - issue #1, May 1995, £1.95


Clive Barker's 'Hellbreed' - issue #2, June 1995, £1.95

Clive Barker's 'Hellbreed' - issue #3, July 1995, £1.95

This appears to have then be collected in this volume (published under the Epic imprint) - or at least the cover has been re-used on this volume! Cover art by Mike Mignola.

A1 (1992) by Atomeka & Epic

A couple of recent purchases (and the death of Garry Leach) has spurred me on to look at Atomeka Press. A look at the Grand Comics database (here) is helpful (thanks for the images!) but incomplete. So, I thought I'd try and rustle up my own complete (?) list of Atomeka publications.

I've looked at the original A1 series (from 1989) here
The Epic comics anthology (from 1992) is here

Now, thanks to friend of the blog Reuben Willmott we can look at some more Atomeka titles...

From 1992 this production with Epic was a colour (!) [rather than black & white] run featuring new material
