Shatter (2nd Series)

    (First, 1985-1988)
First

Shatter (Sadr al-din Morales) is a “temp cop” in a future world where technology has not made life more valuable, but rather has put everything up for sale. In a time of advanced robotics and genetics, underground artists get injections of biological materials in order to foster their talents, and prime samples of RNA are the more precious than gold.

Shatter premiered in a 1985 special, and simultaneously began a six-issue run as a backup for Mike Grell’s Jon Sable, Freelance series. Months later, it began this ongoing series. Perhaps more so than for the story, Shatter is notable as the first comic book generated entirely on a computer. It also served as an introduction for the remarkable talents of artist Mike Saenz.
