The Song of Mykal: Atlantis Fantasyworld 25th Anniversary Comic

    (Atlantis Fantasyworld, 2001)
™ and ©2001 Atlantis Fantasyworld

In 2001, to celebrate a quarter-century in business as a comic book and fantasy store, Santa Cruz, California fixture Atlantis Fantasyworld showed its considerable clout in the industry by assembling this one-shot. It’s both an anniversary edition and a benefit book (all profits from the comic went to the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund), and features a host of pinups and short stories from literally dozens of comics pros including Will Eisner (The Spirit) Mart Nodell (creator of the Golden Age Green Lantern), Paul Chadwick (Concrete) Jill Thompson (Scary Godmother), Matt Wagner (Grendel) and others. If you don’t know anything about the store, you won’t pick up on any of the in jokes here, but even so, it’s an interesting benefit book with a nice gallery of comic art. Neal Adams contributed the striking cover.
