ROM Spaceknight
Jason Levian of Floating World Comics is putting together a ROM art show/tribute thing for Bill Mantlo. So far I've seen gorgeous ROM artwork by Renee French and Jeffrey Brown. If you're in Portland, be sure to look this up. I think the show is in December.

I never read ROM when it was originally published. I was too young I guess, or I started reading comics when I was too old. I like this era of comics, 70s - 80s. I like how something a little odd, like ROM would run 75 issues.

Anyway here is my drawing of ROM. Enjoy.

That is awesome. I also got into comics too late to have been part of the ROM boom, but it's hard to deny the charm of a guy who looks like a toaster murdering hookers.

I love ROM. This really captures the "lost in a world he never made" aspect of comics from that era.

Nice one man. I found one ROM comic in my old collection. I don't even remember owning it. The Renee French piece has me curious now.

Man, what is it with ROM?! My friend ran a ROM fansite back in 96 or 97. Weird.
