About the series

From 1993 to 1997, Caliber Press published Negative Burn, a 50-issue anthology series that became a vital showcase for bold, experimental storytelling in the independent comics scene. Under the guiding hand of editor and frequent writer Joe Pruett, the title featured a rotating roster of talent—including Brian Bolland, James A. Owen, and Laurence Campbell—who delivered a mix of noir, fantasy, and surreal short pieces that pushed the boundaries of the medium. Its reputation as a proving ground for both emerging and established creators made it an essential read for fans seeking work outside the mainstream.
