I loved this line because it was, for the majority, a line for the older industry guys like Starlin, Simonson, Kane and a few others. Did anyone ever finish the "Stamp Program" that they had? I think I was close...maybe missed a few issues. There were supposed to be different levels of completion giveaways. I've to this day have yet to see what one of those giveaways may have been. This was the lineup:
Breed (2 series) by Jim Starlin
Dreadstar by Jim Starlin
Edge by Steven Grant and Gil Kane (unfinished- iBooks released a hardback collection of the complete first series)
The Man Called A-X by Marv Wolfman
Metaphysique by Norm Breyfogle
Nocturnals by Dan Brereton
Power & Glory by Howard Chaykin
Star Slammers by Walter Simonson (unfinished until the series moved to Dark Horse Comics)
Strikeback by Jonathan Peterson, Kevin Maguire and Steve Oliff (unfinished - Image Comics released this series later on and completed it)
It's a shame Marvel has done absolutely NOTHING with any of the Malibu stuff. I don't think they could have done anything with the Bravura line because I think it was sort of like the old "Epic" line was for Marvel in the early days...the characters were owned by the creators...therefore they could take them to any publisher they wanted.
