Volume 32, Number 10

Vol. 32, No. 10
October 2021
whole number 382
2021 pages 073-080

Some proposals to unfinished work by the versatile Ernie Colon are featured this issue, with the front and back cover featuring character designs and profiles for a 1991 detective project called Voudou. Also featured are the beginnings of two novels, Sector One and Wayward, part of an outline for a comic with Todd Klein called Hardware and some discussion of a WWII comic with Robert Kanigher called Operation Tidal Wave. Looks like Colon's already varied career (including books like Arak, Richie Rich, Amethyst, Underworld, The 9/11 Report and Damage Control) could have been even more varied in the right circumstances.
