When Last We Left Sim...

When Your Entire Life from Birth to Death is Only Eight Days Long and You're Already Halfway Through, Things Take on a Certain...Urgency!











To Be Concluded
NEXT WEDNESDAY

Officially-titled DC's Science Fiction Graphic Novel #3Frost & Fire (1985), this was part of DC Comics' second attempt at an ongoing series of graphic adaptations, this time of existing material from noted sci-fi/fantasy authors.
(The first series featured original concepts and stories by comic creatives including Jack Kirby, Howard Chaykin, and Alex Nino.)
Both series ran for seven issues.
Except for Jack Kirby's The Hunger Dogs, which concluded the original New Gods series, none of the stories has ever been reprinted!

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder RESIDENT EVIL "Prologue"

You won't see Alice/Janus (Mila Jovovich) in this tale from 1996...
...since she was created for the film series in 2001!
But you will see characters from the video game, some of whom have since appeared in the movie universe!
BTW, this is a prequel to the first Resident Evil video game and was a promo given away at game stores along with a $5-off coupon for the game cartridge!
There's a superb post from Discomfort Food Comics about the creation of this book which can be found HERE!
Trivia: Bill Sienkiewicz did the game's cover which was reused for the comic, not the other way around!
Much like other creative properties that have spawned spinoffs in other media, there are different versions/universes of Resident Evil with the same basic concept, but each with it's own unique concept/plotlines/characters, specifically the video games (and their spinoffs) and the movies (and their spinoffs).
Just curious...which one do you prefer?
