Death's Head
I edited Death's Head II for
much of its near two-year run for Marvel UK in the early
1990s. Death's Head I and II are Marvel UK's single most
successful characters, and Paul Neary's inspired reinterpretation
of the character, whose tales were scripted by Dan Abnett
and drawn by Liam Sharp, Simon Coleby and others, were
Marvel UK's best-selling US comics. This
fan site includes a complete chronology of the character,
plus links to sites about Marvel UK's Transformers
and Action Force titles.

Garfield
Garfield the comic strip appears in over
2,600 newspapers around the globe, and its readership is estimated at 260
million. If the readership number is right, then four percent of the world's
population reads Garfield every single day. In 2004, Slate.com
reported Garfield products -- sold
in 111 countries -- earn in between $750 million and $1 billion each
year.

Horrors
Official Site: www.petshopofhorrors.com/deep.html
An entire domain fully dedicated to explore and promote
every aspect of Matsuri Akino's most successful and bizarrely
beautiful masterpiece. PetShop of Horrors is a ten volume
manga created by Matsuri Akino and published by Missy
Comics since 1995.
In the heart of Los Angeles' Chinatown there is a mysterious,
luxurious petshop where very exotic animals can be bought.
It is said that there is no creature on earth that can't
be found and purchased among this store's menagerie. The
shop's owner and keeper, a strange and beautiful Chinese
man known only as Count D, assures the customers each
pet represents their own hopes and dreams. These creatures
are to bring them happiness and second chances, but a
contract is to be signed, containing a series of terms
that are to be followed in order to assure the success
of the purchase. In case any of these terms are breached,
the shop cannot hold any responsibility for the consequences.
Such of course can be lethal...
