Doorman is another comic I liked, but the Caliber series was not as cool as his first appearance published by Cult Comics... Doorman Family Secrets #1 Doorman Family Secrets #2 Doorman Family Secrets #3 Defiant1

Very early David Mack work. This comic is so old that it doesn't say Caliber anywhere on it except on a story page inside. Happy the Clown #nn (#1) The streak was cause by my old scanner which I no longer use. I could clean it up, but I'm too lazy tonight. Defiant1

Kaos Moon had some nice art, but I never really read them. I should have the first 4 at least. Kaos Moon #4 Defiant1

I'm a Mike Deodato fan, but this isn't a favorite. Just something I picked because he is credited. Protheus #1 Defiant1

Another very early Allred book... Creatures of the Id #1 Defiant1 I think this book goes for decent money. Yeah, it does if you can find someone who wants it. Allred doesn't have the following he once had. Grafik Muzic would go for more also. Defiant1

I have most if not all. It was well done, as was a lot of stuff Caliber published at the time. I need to start sifting my Caliber comics into one box. Millennium had some good stuff too, but they stopped paying their artists, so their titles and presence tanked pretty quickly.

I believe Brian Michael Bendis got his start at Caliber. I read some of those early Bendis issues Caliber put out. Good stuff.

Happy the Clown #2 Very early David Mack work. If you mention this series to him, he'll get a grin on his face and pretend like he doesn't know it exists. He doesn't like talking about it. He's not real proud of his artistic ability at that time in his life. Q

This is not really a comic, but a comic format publication about how to make comics. It came out in 1997 and referenced software I didn't own, so I never got into it very deeply. My first cartoons were drawn in 1996. My friend the comic shop manager ordered this for me thinking it might speed me along in publishing my own stuff. It didn't. As a general rule, several store managers were always looking out for my tastes and they were pretty good at predicting what I'd buy. I never requested this, but I was excited to get it at the time. I normally would buy what they suggested if I knew they'd got it specifically for me. They hooked me up with cool stuff over the years so the wins outweighed the losses. Defiant1

It appears that Transfuzion has been publishing some of the long out of print Caliber Comics material. www.transfuzion.biz/Strangely, the Caliber Comics website is still up even though they haven't published a book in 9 years.Defiant1

This is drawn better than most modern comics. It is B&W. Caliber was dying around this time, so the comic had no future. The Lost #1
