Has anyone seen "D'arc Tangent" by Phil Foglio and
Freth (Frith? Fripp?  Frapp?  I always forget.)

I think it's one hot book and would like to hear from
D'arc Tangent fans.  It's a future with a future, shall
we say, with a robot (a member of the Arc-Tangent model
series) that accidentally-on-purpose gets his brain
paths all snarled up with some 17th-century
swordsman...hence the title.  But there's a lot more
going on there, and it's got incredibly beautiful artwork
printed with dark ink on white paper, the way things
should be.  It's got the first big-eyed-kitty
telepathic aliens what ain't just cute.  I love it!

I had three separate reactions upon reading the article on D'Arc Tangent.
One was: "Drat, I never thought I WOULD see the second issue." (I very
much feel that way about the Rocketeer, by the way).

Two was: "You see, that is why I don't subscribe to NEW comic companies.
I trust in Steve Geppi to have my comics and he doesn't require money up
front."

Three was: "Hmm, the thought of two separate D'Arc Tangents is rather
intreging!  It certainly would confuse people, but then it could be consid-
ered to be competition taken to its logical conclusion."

Thank you VERY much for the information.  At least now I know what happened.
