The mercy giants & Brett Ewins

I'm indebted to friend of the blog Nevs Coleman for bringing this super obscure Brett Ewins comic, We think so loud,  to my attention. All these images were sourced from here - good luck adding this to your collection, it's super rare!

UPDATED: Tank Girl - manga (1995/6)

I only recently became aware of this short-lived (only 8 issues) Tank Girl comic from 1995/6. This is a large comic (so British sized rather than US comic sized) with mainly Tank Girl reprints - what a surprise. I've acquired issue 1 so far and I'll be on the look out for the other issues.

Now updated with the (previously missing) cover to issue 5

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...
