Mike Grell — Freelance

Jon Sable, Freelance, #18, November 1984

We close our month-long celebration of independent creators with a cool noir-ish page from fan-favorite artist Mike Grell and his mercenary (mostly good guy) Jon Sable. Appropriately, it’s the final page from a two-parter set against the Olympic games.

(1984 was 37 years ago? I need a drink.)

We also close with a great urban legend involving Sable, Pierce Brosnan, and the short-lived (and not great) Sable Televison series.

Sable TV series? Yep, I forgot about it, too.
