The Return Of Comico? But What Of The Elementals?

Comico was a comics publisher in Pennsylvania that, through the nineties, published books such as Robotech, Jonny Quest, Mage: The Hero Discovered, Elementals and Grendel before it went bankrupt in 1990.

The publisher was sold to one Andrew Rev who started publishing colour comics under the name, including The Elementals, until 1997 with the final issue of the Elementals Vol 2 Sex Special #2.

Since then, there has been an attempt by the original founders to publish comcics as CO2 Comics, And many publishers have tried to sort out the legal issues regarding the publication of The Elementals, without joy. And no one seems to know where Andrew Rev is.

Well, somebody might.

In 1995, Steven Rev registered Comico Gaming as a corporation, as its President, and was credited in Comico titles, such as this from Red Dragon #1.
