Favourite comics: Captain Sternn by Bernie Wrightson

One of the best comics of the 1980s that wasn't published by the big two (DC or Marvel) was Bernie Wrightson's Captain Sternn. The good Captain first appeared in the pages of the June 1980 edition of Heavy Metal magazine before staring in the 1981 animated Heavy Metal movie. However, it wouldn't be until 1993 when Kitchen Sink published the adventures of Captain Lincoln Sternn in a 5 issue mini series that I would savour Wrightson's lush cartoon style art. Below are some pages from the series featuring the amoral, wisecracking captain along with his wonderful partner in crime, the Hulk like Hanover Fiste (pictured above at the header).
