Title: Online exclusive Seeds of Evil prequel comic?
Post by: Gomess on April 18, 2018, 04:56:28 PM
Hiya folks, long-time fan of the Turok games only just discovering the comics, and loving them. It's a pleasant surprise to find that Joshua Fireseed was a full-on character all along!

But I've had no luck finding the Seeds of Evil prequel comic that was up on Acclaim's official Turok site back around '98~'99. It seems immune to Wayback, and the Turok Wiki's link for it goes to a thread full of dead images. Attached image is supposedly the 'cover'?

So, my question is: Is anyone able and willing to post the full comic, here or elsewhere? Copyright shouldn't be an issue, since it was never actually *printed*.

Hope someone can help, cheers!

Unfortunately, it was never completed, so these three parts are it.

Hey, thanks for the quick reply!

Looks like this wouldn't be the first or last inadvertent cliffhanger in the pre-reboot comics... Bit of a shame, but I've gotta give Acclaim props for even *trying* to be such a legit multimedia company at the time.

Thanks again!

No problem! If you're interested, track down Christopher Priest's ebook KLANG! A Writer's Commentary. There are a few scripts from unpublished issues of his series Quantum and Woody that feature our favorite Fireseed and what happens when dinosoids manage to steal the Light Burden (essentially, you get the Shadowman to take care of them).

As luck would have it, my other half's a bit of a Priest fan and I believe *just* got that very ebook!
