Launched in the winter of 2015, Comics Unlimited is an on-line full color magazine about comic books, comic art, and comic creators from all over the world. It covers various genres of comic books including spy, war, and science fiction and various elements of the comic book industry like Cos Play. There are articles on such properties as Dr. Who’s Daleks, Captain Scarlet, EC Comics, DNA Agents, Guardians of the Galaxy, Infinity Inc., Marvel Team Up, Modesty Blaise, Prince Namor, and many, many more subject matters including the most in depth look at The Defenders ever run in a magazine! There are lengthy interviews with writers, artists, and even editors of the likes of fan favorite creators Howard Chaykin, Romero, Joe Staton, Pat Mills, Guy Dorian Sr., and Marvel Comics’ and WildStorm Production’s editor Mike Rockwitz. There’s even a special issue devoted entirely to the genius of Jack “the King” Kirby.
Each issue is masterfully laid out with illustrations perfectly balancing the articles on every page. Interesting features of the magazine include its recurring mascot HATCH (a simple unassuming character trying to peacefully travel through the void of space on his asteroid) and that the cover of Comics Unlimited is often illustrated by a featured talent interviewed in the magazine. Issue #1 for instance has the cover illustrated and inked by the multi Harvey Award winning artist Joe Staton in a detective noir style of Frank Miller.
The bi-monthly digital magazine is over 80 pages long starting with issue #1. There is a 34 page issue #0 of the on-line magazine that is free for your viewing pleasure. The free digital issue can be seen at http://www.sequentialmediapublishing.com or on the Facebook page of Comics Unlimited where you can also order your subscription. For the price of five issues you get a sixth one free. Or you can order a single issue of the 80 plus page magazine for only $7.50 USD by sending an email to this email address: [email protected], or just go to the Paypal link and order one copy, stating which copy you want. With the prices of most comics hovering around the $5.00 USD mark for 30 pages, this amount of entertaining in depth material in over 80 pages of glorious color is too tempting to miss.
