	Elementals (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Elementals was a dark superhero comic book first published in 1984 and created by Bill Willingham, for which he was both writer and artist.
		The four elements, unimaginably powerful spirits who together formed the foundation of existence, each chose an ordinary human who had been killed by their element, and resurrected him or her.
		In the comic the main ways to gain superhuman powers are through dying, often in a manner which attracts the roaming energy of Shadowspear.

		Many games use elementals composed of non-standard elements — elementals made of darkness, ice, life energy, light, lightning, magical energy, magma, mana, mud, plant s, smoke, temporal energy and weather phenomena are all relatively common.

	Comico Comics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		While Comico had proven to be a serious contender as a third major comic company, a decision in mid-1986 spelled the end of the comic company: it began to publish to the newsstand market.
		They also partnered with DC Comics to distribute their comics into a wider market.
		The comic's presses went silent again until 1995, with yet another Elementals title (running three issues), and various Elementals spin-offs that never made it past their first issues.

	Elementals Vol 1 #6-#9, Special #1
		The Elementals' creation was sensed by Saker, who sent the Destroyers, his personal guard, to capture or kill them before they could interfere with his plans.
		Only one of the Elementals was allowed out of his or her cell at any time, while the others were help hostage for good behavior.
		As long as the Shadowspear remains, the elementals are not finished with their mission from beyond the grave.

		I also was the human eraser for an issue or two of Elementals (erasing the pencils from the finished inks), and xeroxed quite a few issues for their editors, Mike Eury and Diana Schutz.
		I mean, sure, I had been out of the comic book loop for a few years (I was on the pulse when I was working for a retail chain, all the industry news passed our way) but I didn't consider that rejection by the comic distributor would be possible.
		I spoke to a couple of comic pros who said that, despite their elitism, Diamond is afraid of the Feds looking at them too closely, and the "M"-word, monopoly rising upon them.

		The Sub-Mariner, one of Marvel Comics' oldest superheroes, is the son of an American naval officer and a princess of the undersea civilization of Atlantis.

	Walkin' Willie's Comix - Willie Rants
		To walk into a comic book store and see Fantastic Four #500 (directors cut or whatever the hell they call it) is like a blast from the past, but in a bad way.
		The speculators who populated the comic book stores were gone and had jumped onto the next big fad at the time (Elvis stamps?) and the collectors who remained were disillusioned and needed some time away from the industry.
		As a result, comic book stores began to close and the industry was feared to be on the verge of extinction.

		When I was growing up, comics were still part of the American mainstream culture and not relegated to a small sub-culture, like they are today.
		Comico (the Elementals publisher), in its earliest incarnation, was in many significant ways the ideal model for the creator-friendly comics publisher.
		BW: Pantheon was inspired by Elementals in that many elements (sorry) of the Pantheon story line would have occurred in the Elementals, had I been able to continue with that series as I had planned.

		Of course, you know the only reason there were elemental giants in this issue was to give Lee something cool to draw, and that's really unfortunate when you have a writer and artist with so much talent.
		The giants are elementals, so you have water and fire and all sorts of exciting stuff.

		The Grand Comics Database is a totally non-profit project with the noble intent to scan the cover and index every single comic book in existence.
		As a nice cherry on this sundae of comics goodness, the book and jacket are designed by Chip Kidd, who ignores his sometimes over-busy sensibility for a starkly striking design with a minimalist dust jacket.
		He's a screenwriter and novelist best known for 3 Kings and Everybody Smokes in Hell, and one suspects he may be "slumming it" by writing for comics.

		Other notions of elementals played a bit loose with the concept: Captain Atom was even redefined as a "quantum elemental" (albeit in rather readable stories).
		So too did the very notion of what constituted an "earth elemental." It had long become clear that Swamp Thing was not, strictly speaking, an earth elemental but rather a plant elemental: between animal, vegetable, and mineral, Swamp Thing clearly came down in the second -- yet was called an earth elemental.
		And the theme of a battle between factions of the earth elemental family had been used previously -- although less successfully -- by Doug Wheeler in his final storyline, running from #104-109 and featuring a battle between green and grey plant elementals.
