I’m adding my inventory of scripts and rare marketing sheets from my time at Greater Mercury Comics, the first publisher I worked for in 1990. I was 20 years old and honestly not really very good at any of this yet, but regardless of lack of experience, I swung for the fences. A very exciting time at the start of my career. Glad to finally get the high res scans online and available here for fans and collectors of this prolific black and white publisher. 

Included in this set is a scanned pdf of Eradicators #5 script by Kris Silver. Download for free: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/8gzeg9e8aimt5k8vkufvp/GMC-eradicators-5-script.pdf?rlkey=ucfmpktetjw388zul3yrrlfhi&dl=0

I’ve held on to a lot of old art from my Malibu Comics days, mostly in the form of photocopies of the original penciled and inked pages. I don’t think much of this stuff is available online, so I decided a while back to start compiling what I have in my archives and devote part of my Patreon page to a Malibu Comics Archive. Here’s the latest, a few pencil scans and photocopied inks from my work on Hard Case. One of the pencilers is Tim Hamilton, but I don’t have any info on the other, except than it was also from an issue of Hard Case.

If you’re a Malibu Comics fan or just want to understand what a huge impact that publisher had on the comics industry back in the day, there’s a new interview with one of Malibu’s founders, Tom Mason at Buzzsprout.com. Tom seems to be the go-to guy to really tell the full and accurate story about the publisher. It’s a fascinating interview, I hope you’ll check it out.
