NUELOW Summer Special Preview

NUELOW Games has released another collection of classic comics in the NUELOW Summer Special. This time, it's a variety of teen comedy comics by the likes of Al Feldstein (who was the editor of Mad Magazine for some three decades) and Harry Sahle (one of the founding fathers of the great Archie series). The book also features NUELOW's unofficial mascot Black Cat taking to water in summer-time action. Finally, there's a supplement for ROLF!: The Rollplaying Game of Big Dumb Fighters in which Kathy (of NUELOW's Kathy fame) takes her boyfriend Hank to a picturesque cemetery for some moonlit romance... what could possibly go wrong?

Here are a few splash-pages from the book as a preview. You can click here to see more of the NUELOW Games Summer Special at DriveThruComics, or to download your own copy. The book is available for less than half price through the First Day of Summer (June 21).

Coming Soon: The Best of 'Kathy'

NUELOW Games is soon releasing Kathy, a small collection of classic teen comedy comics illustrated by the team of Frank Frazetta and Ralph Mayo. If you like teen comedies, if you like the screwier sit-coms, if you just want to read some funny stories with goofy characters, you should check out this book.

You should also check out the book if you have an interest in comics as an art-form. In the course of the four included stories,Frazetta and Mayo trade off being the penciler or inker, and doing both art chores. It's an interesting display of how much an artists style can influence the look of a comic depending on what task he is performing.

You can explore the entire selection of NUELOW Games comics/rpg books by clicking here. It's a treasure trove of obscure comics from the Golden Age! And look for Kathy by Frank Frazetta and Ralph Mayo (with RPG content by Steve Miller and L.L. Hundal) within the next day or two!
