About this Collection

This second volume of the A1 anthology series from Atomeka Press collects issues #5-8 of the original 1989 run, featuring a mix of darkly satirical and experimental stories. Highlights include further adventures of Axel Pressbutton, a Bacchus tale by Eddie Campbell, and a Doc Stearn installment, showcasing the eclectic talent that defined this influential British comics magazine.

In "The Absolutely, Positively Coolest Mr. Monster Story Ever," Kyrn the barbarian, granted immortality to pursue his relentless war of revenge against the cities of the East, faces his ultimate trial in a final clash with the enigmatic Augur. Paul Behrer’s tale unfolds with mythic intensity, brought to life by Simon Bisley’s wildly imaginative art and inks, while John Bolton and Dave McKean deliver a cover as chaotic and striking as the story within.
