Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION Dr. Gym'll's Cultural Rarities Elfquest!!

I found out a couple of days ago that the Pini's have made all of the Elfquest comics available at elfquest.com for free! If you've never read any, I really recommend checking them out. The earliest issues are a bit clunky in both dialogue and layouts, but it improves really fast.

Elfquest has been a huge influence on me artistically. When I was a kid I wanted to draw just like Wendy Pini. Unfortunately, in a small town with no comic shop it was hard to get a hold of issues, and once I grew up and had better access, the collected editions seemed too expensive. I'm really happy to finally get to read teh whole series.

yay!
Great stuff. A big influence on me as a teen, artistically and thematically.

EQ was also an important and easily overlooked cornerstone in indy comics. The Pinis were true pioneers! (Lardy, do NOT go there...) I really doubt creator-driven comics would be the same without them (and Dave Sim) paving the way.... and doing it extremely well.

Always wanted to read this stuff. Thanks for the link.

Great site. I can see that I will be spending a lot of time there.
