Computerized Comic: SHATTER
Josep...@xerox.arpa
Dan didn't mention that the first issue of "Shatter" is as the back-up
story of First Comics' "Jon Sable Freelance" (June issue , I believe).
I also read a lot of SF & adventure comics (for adventure, JSF is
definitely my current favorite. The artwork and the stories are
excellent and I highly reccomend them. Note: The June issue of JSF is a
segway into the July issue and is therefore more enjoyable if you know
the characters. The July issue, "Homecoming, Part II" is excellent,
typical JSF fare and good as a stand alone comic story).
I was unimpressed with Shatter and think that it must be it could be
done a lot better, both story wise and art wise. There have been two so
far, both back-ups in JSF.

Actually, /SHATTER/ first appeared in it's own (one-shot) book, with the
story then continued in JSF. The black and white art is the same (all
done on a Mac) but the coloring is dramatically different than that
appearing in JSF.

I too am not terribly impressed by /SHATTER/. But I am /very/ impressed
with the patience the artist must have to have actually drawn all that
stuff on a Mac! If you haven't seen it, you should at least try and find
a copy and look at it.
