The Last Generation (Comic Resources for Mutant Future)


In the late 80's (86-87) I stumbled across this comic.  Being a long time Gamma World fan, I of course picked it up.  It was really cool, I loved the art and was quite intrigued by the direction the story seemed to be going.  I made sure I got the following issues.




I was disappointed when the series cancelled due to financial reasons. One curious item of note is that years later at a local Con, I learned my wife and the series artist Mitch Foust were buddies in high school.  How cool is that?  Anyways if you like Gamma World and can find this short-lived series you might want to pick it up.  Shamanistic bears, Wolfmen, the Angel, and what seems to be an Egyptian god.  Cool Stuff!
