Cryogenic Comix # 18












1st edition, 1998, 43 copies, yellow and white guts, covers: 5 pink, 4 green, 5 red, 5 blue, 4 grey, 20 yellow, regular digest size.

1st Danger Room Reprint Edition, June 2005, 5 copies, yellow cover, regular digest size.

The last issue of this series was the most unusual, containing an unfinished version of Macbeth starring Morty the Dog. The little intro on the inside (just click on it a couple times to enlarge the text) explains the whole sad story, including Tim Corrigan's plans to publish it. For those of you who don't know this cartoonist and publisher Tim "Mightyguy" Corrigan I can attest he's a prince of a fellow, which seems like an appropriate tribute as long as we're talking Shakespeare! He's done an awful lot to promote self-published comics and has selflessly helped many other struggling cartoonists.

There are many times I have abandoned a comic after getting a few pages into it. This one might be one of the more involved pieces I tossed.
