Comix Zone is a 1995 arcade-style action game. The game's most remarkable feature is that it is set within the "panels" of a comic book. Each level consists of two "pages" and secrets are discovered by shredding the "paper" and revealing items. The unique dialogue is rendered within talk bubbles with the typical comic font. Sprites and backgrounds possess the bright colors and dynamic drawing style favored by superhero comics.
Comix Zone was widely criticized for being released too late and for being too hard and short, but it was positively received, and praised for its great game-play, graphics, and soundtrack. It became a great success due to its game-play, and is released on many collections and consoles since.
The music was composed by Howard Drossin, a known video game and movie composer. Graphics were done mainly by comic artists.
The game was originally from a concept video animated by Peter Morawiec titled "Joe Pencil Trapped In The Comix Zone". The video was made in 1992, displaying the animation of how the gameplay and the comic book elements would blend in.

  • ONly for the Genesis.... I played this on the PC

  • It's being sold on Steam for $1.49 (when I bought it a few days back) for those who wants to support the original!

  • Ah, back when games were only half an hour long, but ridiculously hard so seemed to take forever.

  • SEGA!!

    God I remember those commericals yelling that at the end XD

  • THIS....is far beyond epic.Oh,and not to mention hilarious XD

  • One of my favorite video games ever, especially before moving onto my PlayStation. What sucked is that after I got this game, I started to have serious technical difficulties from my A/V cable. Shit totally blew the buzz of playing this for the first time . . . every time I got up from the bed, the connection would go on the fritz! Luckily my tech-savvy uncle was visiting and kept fixing it. ^_^ Great commercial here, fuckin' 90s brah, lemme tell ya . . .
