I used to read Blast magazine in the UK. It only ran for 7 issues but had Lazarus Churchyard in. Well cool, shame it flopped. That was around 1991 I think.

you gots taste dude..that's all electic stuff..but you are lucky... some awesome stuff going on in European comics..only a fraction of which gets translated into English.
Spikee I am a huge Warren Ellis fan..and Lazarus Churchyard is one of the few things by him I havent read...it's so damn expensive and rare..you should try Transmetropolitan by him it truly rocks...

Hmm, it's probably that croatian guy, I seem to be unable to remember his name too... Are the graphics all like re-done photos?

Ah, OK, I remember now, that's Aleksandar Zograf. Yeah, he's an extremely cool person, though, strangely enough, I don't really dig his comics too much. Older ones were much more powerful/ radical, IMO, the new ones are too "dreamy" and politically correct.

Anyone here into the older comics like Buck Rogers and the Green Hornet? When Ismoov and Bradbury used to write stories for news stands in the 30's it was like a revolution, and from charectures like Buck Rogers came Superman, Spiderman... and the like. Some of those early comics are funny as hell, good stuff
