Mike Grell’s JON SABLE FREELANCE FULL RUN 1-56! Worth $175.! $125.00 Shipped!!
Jon Sable Freelance is one of the first series created for fledgling publisher First Comics in 1983. It was written and drawn by Mike Grell and was a fully creator-owned title. This Title was one of the first of the independent and dark superhero stories of the 1980’s and "helped usher in the grim and gritty sensibility that came to define the genre"! At a convention in the late 1980s, Grell stated that his idea for Sable was heavily influenced by Ian Fleming's James Bond novels as well as drawing on pulp fiction crime stories saying "something like a cross between James Bond and Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer"! Many of the stories of Sable's hunting exploits in Africa were influenced by Peter Hathaway Capstick's novels, while Grell also drew on his own military experience!
Jon Sable Freelance lasted 56 issues from June 1983 to February 1988 before being cancelled.
