'P-Man'

[SFC] [JAPAN] [MAGAZINE] [1995]

"I really enjoy games that keep the player engaged by adding new mechanics throughout the campaign. Prehistorik Man constantly kept me on my toes. Whenever I got comfortable, thinking I had experienced everything on offer, I was handed a brand new prop to play around with. Similar to the gameplay shifts, the visuals kept surprising me as well. I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me during the Dark Forest stage. The tree shade transitions from light to dim are truly a sight to behold and had me smiling ear to ear. This is a real gem that should not be missed." ~Mike Vito, Ultimate Nintendo: Guide to the SNES Library (1991-"1998)

Thunder Photon, the finishing move of the incredibly low budget, independent tokusatsu hero P-Man.

So, you’ll notice there’s a big blank spot at the bottom of this page. That’s because this is literally where the comic ended. I just... gave up. No more P-Man, no more Dreamer. We’re at the tail end of my prolific pre-teen/tween/teen comics production period, when I stopped caring about making these things and more about making out with girls. 

There are only a few full comics left from the Delta Comics era that I’ll be posting over the next few weeks, and then ... well, then, we get into the fun stuff: We’re going to be free of the chronological presentation I’ve been following for the last seven (!) years, and I’m going to dig into the unfinished comics, the alternate covers, the half-concepts, the newspaper-style comic strips.
