Mazelighting, Episode 1 – The Maze Agency #1 (1988)
Welcome, friends to an all-new program — one that’s been in the works for quite a while now! Join Ed and I as we explore a TRUE hidden gem in comics history… Mike W. Barr’s wonderfully fun detective, romance, dramedy: THE MAZE AGENCY!
For this first episode, we will discuss how and when we first discovered this series, we’ll dig into some of the history surrounding it and it’s creators, and we’ll dig though the issue cover-to-cover. Our story is a whodunit that we hope YOU can solve before WE (and Jen and Gabe) do!
On top of that, we’ve got some of the gestalty goodness you’ve come to expect from this channel, as we take a look at what else Comico (how DO you pronounce that word anyway?!) had to offer during the Winter of 1988/89! Did someone say “Elementals Sex Specials”???, cuz… while those ain’t out yet… we’re gonna talk a little bit about ’em!
We hope you enjoy our look at this series… and would love to hear your thoughts as we go along!
