1996: state of the comic industry a decade ago

[EdContradictory]

1996 called, he wants his Xena: Warrior Princess action figure back!

YMB was cleaning up the basement last week and found something... Wizard issue number 65. Their "year-end spectacular" for 1996. As we begin 2007, YMB thought a look back to the state of the industry a decade ago might be worthwhile...

I was on the crapper reading it.

I think that was the last Wizard I bought for something like five years, and even then, I never picked it up regularly. Ah, geek innocence, back when I thought that Marvel and DC were the only things worth reading, and that Wizard had my back.

...but don't look back in anger...

[The Beast Of Yucca Flats]

A Kingdom Come spin-off drawn by Gene Ha?! I wonder what that woulda been like...

[The Xenos]

Wow. I read that crap. Hell, I know I still got that issue somewhere. It is hilarious to reread them years later.
