hizzy Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Another book by Dynamite, written by Max Bemis. https://www.bleedingcool.com/2017/04/17/arcade-classic-centipede-slithers-comic-shops-summer/ Bemis has a decent following. Looks like Dynamite is putting some serious effort in to their atari books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariLeaf Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 At least they're dropping the stupid elves and magic wand crap. Even as a kid I never liked that. To me it was just a shooter and the story made no sense. If anything a sci-fi, mutant bug angle made more sense but that's me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy B. Coyote Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) Very cool! It looks like no small amount of inspiration for the comic was drawn from the more recent game Centipede: Infestation, which was actually a surprisingly good game. A lot like a cross between Centipede and Robotron 2084, and definitely a game that every Wii owner with a Classic Controller should have in their collection if they're a fan of Centipede.

hizzy Posted April 17, 2017 Author Share Posted April 17, 2017 The variant covers are by some established names, too. Good on Dynamite! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I've already pre-ordered the Swordquest Atari 2600 variant cover. Guess I'll go back and snag the Centipede one as well!! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
