So many books came out in the "B&W Explosion" of 1985-87, most of them completely forgettable but there were some good ones.

 

I remember Mackenzie Queen got a favorable review in Comics Journal back in the day, and I was only able to find one isue, #3 I think. It was pretty good although being in the middle of the story left some things out. There's a trade of it, a very early example of a limited series being collected, and the sinlge issues do appear on ebay now and then.

 

Futurians was a Marvel Graphic Novel first, then an indy series from Cockrum. I go thte first issue, but don't remember seeing anymore. Looks like it got up to #3. OK superhero group book with the group sort of forced into mutations.

 

I don't feel like scanning it, but there was a book called "French Ice" from either A-V or Renegade Press that was pretty good based on the one issue I have. I think it was a reprint of a French comic (in English), but it was very funny and the art was nice and pretty original looking.
