Thursday Worlds of Wonder ATARI FORCE "Galaxian" Conclusion

Wednesday was Christmas, so we're posting this a day late.
The Dark Destroyer, has possessed the minds of normally-peaceful aliens and is using them to destroy Scanner One and the crew in interstellar combat.
The Atarians are trying to protect themselves, incapacitate the alien craft,and avoid killing their crews...who have no such compunctions about the humans!
The crew are using a strategy taken directly from the real-world gameplay of the video game this comic was included with...though not without taking heavy damage...
The storyline of the original Atari Force mini-comics concludes with what appears to be a happy ending!
When the sequel series begins publication a year later, 20 years have passed in-universe and a lot of things have happened.
For one thing, The Dark Destroyer survived!
But that's a story for another time...

Friday Holiday Fun GREMLINS Conclusion

...(was it really that long?) this insanely-cute (especially her) young couple fought for their lives on Christmas Eve against an invasion of weird creatures!
Witness now the fearsome finale...
Gizmo Will Return in Gremlins 2: the New Breed
...sadly, there wasn't a comic book/graphic novel adaptatation of it!
Reading the graphic novel, you'll note dialogue and scenes that are different from the movie itself, indicating, due to time constraints, the comic creatives were working from an earlier draft of the script.
Ony thing that doesn't appear in the GN is Kate's explanation as to why she hates Christmas...
...although I suspect it was left out due to a limited page count in the comic, since it was in the movie script from the beginning.
As to other changes and scenes left out of the final version...

Hope you enjoyed our multi-part presentation of the graphic novel that few people even knew existed!

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder ATARI FORCE "Galaxian" Part 3

Original art for the wraparound cover by Gil Kane and Dick Giordano!
This is a double-page spreaad
Control-Click to enlarge!
...after battling their way through multiple universes too hostile for the population of a devasted Earth to migrate to, the crew seems to have found both an ideal planet to colonize and an ideal, peaceful, interstellar community to bond and work with...
Interesting how the aliens' strategy matches the gameplay of the video game Galaxian?
Note: the Dark Destroyer is not in the video game!
To Be Concluded...Not Next Wednesday, but...
THURSDAY!
(Wednesday is Christmas Day!
We suspect you'll be enjoying the holiday...we know we will!)
