Welcome
to Comic book stories.
Much
like movies, that have a multitude of
tales and settings, i.e. war, western,
romance, sci-fi, historical, and comedy,
we feel comic books can be used to explore
many types of stories in ways that are
unique to this medium.
By
using the Internet to publish, we are
taking this medium beyond the walls
of the comicbook shops, and presenting
it directly to the reading public.
We
feel this has the promise to reach a
much wider audience, and a much more
diverse audience.
Comic
books were created to sell ink on paper.
In the process, they became much more
than that, they created our modern myths.
Superman,
Batman, Spiderman, the Hulk and the
X-Men. Who in our culture, or the world
for that matter, has not heard of these
characters?
They
touch us at the core of our fears, our
aspirations, our dreams, and nightmares.
These
icons were created in the crucible of
public opinion when comic books were
a mainstream medium.
Along
with these larger-than-life heroes,
comic books gave us the ability to examine
our prejudice, our ethics, and our beliefs
in the small, morality plays such as
Boys Ranch, Sgt. Rock, and True Romance.
In
the right hand column, you will see
the links to our first five books. Click
on the book you want to read and through
the magic of cyber space you'll be whisked
into our minstrel show of the 21st century.
They're playing now!
Enjoy!
