Each time I update, each player gets to ask one "yes or no" question ("Is this a Marvel or Fawcett comic?", "Was the comic published in or before 1990?", etc. - any question that can be answered with "yes" or "no") and make one guess as to both the name of the series and issue number of the comic.

Fright Night #19, Now Comics, 1988 series.

And on an unrelated note, in my research I found a French series on GCD called Zara La Vampire, which features very nice, very NSFW covers. I'd never heard of it before, but now I must seek it out, to see if the interiors live up to the covers.

DANG IT. I saw that series on comic vine but the art on the example issue didn't look anything like the slice. I looked at way more weird covers than I realized existed hunting for that one. Nice find Clone Ranger. Zara caused me to pause a couple moments as well.

I had to check 'em out too. ;b

First point goes to the Clone Ranger: Fright Night 18, May, 1990, by Kevin West. =)
