After seeing a reference to it while looking at the Wikipedia entry for Atari Force<\/em> to prepare my Short Box<\/a> post, I decided that I should supplement my collection of Atari-related work by Jos\u00e9 Luis Garc\u00eda-L\u00f3pez with the first DC Graphic Novel<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve never read it before, and I don’t think it has any direct ties to the Atari Force<\/em> ongoing series, though glancing through it I see that there is a reference to Atari Force – the team, not the comic – and it’s on a world populated by creatures of the same species as Hukka, the little alien creature who appeared in the mini-comics and the ongoing series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mostly I just wanted to have some more JLGL art in my life, because too much is never enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second DC Graphic Novel<\/em> is also an Atari tie-in. It’s based on the game Warlords<\/em>, it’s not JLGL, and it doesn’t appear to be connected to Atari Force<\/em> in any way, so I’m going to give that one a pass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even so, keep your eyes peeled for new Mail Call<\/a> posts, as there’s always something<\/em> – including something with even more JLGL goodness – that will be making its way here eventually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
