*Miscellaneous 1960 Onwards: One of the benefits of running your own comics business is that you’re able to play favourites. In the 1980s, there were a number of series produced by the smaller independent publishers that I followed avidly and which still remain firm favourites. An example of such is Xenozoic Tales, writer/artist Mark Schultz’s tour de force set six hundred years in the future on what appears to be a post-apocalyptic Earth. ‘Welcome to a world gone mad. Where dinosaurs roam with humans and Cadillacs race woolly mammoths. Welcome to all of Earth’s ages rolled into one! Meet Jack Tenrec – Cadillac Jack – part mechanic, part shaman. Meet Hannah Dundee, scientist, diplomat, explorer. Together, willingly or unwillingly, they seek the secrets of the Xenozoic. What they find is inside…’ Part reprinted by Marvel as ‘Cadillacs and Dinosaurs’, the series enjoyed fame in the 1990s by that name as as an animated TV series, role-playing and arcade games, trading cards and action figures etc. However, the essence of Xenozoic Tales is as presented here in all 14 issues of the series from Kitchen Sink, plus the preceding preview appearing in issue #8 of their Death Rattle anthology series, thus the first appearance of this concept. Mark Schultz, whose wonderful artwork (inspired by and in the style of Wally Wood and Al Williamson) in crisp black and white with superb colour covers, is still around and promises to continue the story one day. It’s been a long wait… This set is in excellent condition; the lowest grade is VF+ and many are as new.
