MONSTERS AND MUTANTS No. 9
16-page mini-comix on Day-Glo cardstock and yellow paper
Published By: Dark Horse Comix
By: JEFF GAITHER and MICHAEL RODEN
Print run: 100 copies
Price: $1.00
Yet another mind-boggling collaboration with ace monster artist JEFF GAITHER. This cool mini-comix includes some classic MICHAEL RODEN Crazy Men (see pages 2, 6, 8-9, and 10) as well as some of the best collaborative work these two artists have ever produced. As with MONSTERS AND MUTANTS Number 4, all the drawings were done by both JEFF GAITHER and MICHAEL RODEN. This is a seriously impressive mini-comix.
Pathologically serious collectors may want to note that at least one mutant copy of this book exists. This 24-page variant contains only twelve of the sixteen pages from the normal book because the pages were printed on one side only. And some of the pages are on white paper instead of yellow. And the interior pages are not in the same order as they are in the normal version of the book. In case you’re interested.
