About this Collection

This collection brings together a selection of stories from the short-lived but beloved Nintendo Comics System line, published by Mallard Press in 1990. Featuring a wild crossover of Nintendo's biggest stars—including Mario, Link, Samus Aran, Donkey Kong, and Captain N—the volume captures the zany, humor-driven tone of the original comic series. It's a nostalgic snapshot of late-'80s video game culture, blending adventure and slapstick across the Mushroom Kingdom, Hyrule, and beyond.

"In the Palm of Your Hand..." delivers a high-octane twist on Little Mac’s underdog charm, as a chance encounter with a devoted fan pulls him into a world of glittering parties and hidden rivalries. When her jealous ex challenges him to a city-wide gauntlet of one hundred fights—culminating in a showdown with the legendary Super-Macho Man—Little Mac must prove he’s more than just a boxer with a heart. Written by Bryan D. Leys and brought to life by Don Hudson’s dynamic art, with inks by Bob Layton and colors by The Gradations, this 1990 Mallard Press gem captures the wild energy of the Nintendo Comics System at its most inventive.
