Rune: The Spin Special Edition

Barry Windsor-Smith and Chris Ulm launched this single-issue Malibu special in 1994, a deluxe spin-off spotlighting the immortal, amnesiac hero Rune. Windsor-Smith’s painted art gives the book a distinctive, moody atmosphere, setting it apart from the standard superhero comics of the era. Though brief, it stands as a polished, creator-driven artifact from Malibu’s early ’90s peak.
