Tamba

A short-lived but distinctive miniseries from the late '80s, Tamba was published by the independent Comic Productions imprint. Running for four issues between 1988 and 1991, the series is best remembered for its creator's moody, atmospheric artwork and a lean, self-contained story that helped define the alternative-comics sensibilities of the era. Its concise run and focused vision make it a notable example of the period's creator-driven, non-superhero storytelling.
