Bonk Comic
« on: January 04, 2013, 05:17:09 AM »
So i was flipping through my The Amazing Spider-man comic #340 and found this mini comic that I'm sure you guys will appreciate.

(sorry for the bad cropping)



I made it so big so everyone can read it.
I really like video games...

I've found it in old issues of Uncanny X-men as well. Thanks for scanning it though.

Sweet!  I don't recall ever seeing that before.  It's much better than most of their other advertising, especially the Johnny Turbo comic.

Ah, good times. Thanks for the scan!

The comic didn't do T.Ractorhead or Princess Za any justice as far as aesthetics go. Thank goodness their actual appearances in the games were much better.
My past-life would've surely led to our demise, and I had left it not a moment too soon. Our escape, though dangerous, had gone well. The train ride, sunlight, and passing snow-covered pine trees came together in a flickering show of our bright, new future together. Her head rested on my shoulder as she soundly slept to the gentle rocking of the passenger car. We felt freedom. We felt peace.

Seriously, great find, loved reading this!  Thank you.

Everything is off-spec except for Bonk in the top-right panel.  Ugh.
