 Dark Wolf Art By Butch Burcham Copyright 1987 R.A. Jones |
Dark Wolf "Night Vision" Issue 2, August 1987, Malibu Comics story, R.A. Jones; art/cover, Butch Burcham Harlan makes an apperance as himself in this issue of R.A. Jone's Dark Wolf. Dark Wolf was a violent vigilante book from the Black & White boom era of the mid to late eighties published by Malibu Comics. Ellison appears as an old friend of the main character's alter-ego, Father Michael Tremaine. They have a chat in the confessional booth before the Father begins a day's confession and Ellison leaves just as the antagonist for that issue, Holocaust, shows up. Ellison is portrayed in "character" and is even introduced as "a decidely unrepentent guest" in the narration. He even almost gets into a fight with Holocaust as he leaves the church. For one of the first times I have come across the Ellison appearance is used as a selling point in the solicitation for the book. In the "Back Issues!" column (advertising the other releases that month from Malibu) the book is described: "Dark Wolf's vendetta against the Lords continues. Harlan Ellison makes a guest appearance." |
