Fantastic Exploits

Fantastic Exploits, a two-issue series from New Media Publishing that began in 1982, offers a compact burst of creator-owned adventure. Written by Bob and Jane Stine and illustrated by Steve Bissette, it stands as an early example of the 1980s independent comics movement, showcasing Bissette's distinctive art before his more famous horror work. Though brief, the series is a neat snapshot of the era's DIY spirit and a worthwhile footnote for fans of the Stines' pulp storytelling and Bissette's evolving style.
