Whatever happened to Cross Plains Comics? They were putting out some interesting stuff.

Tim Vigil's Cuda is an excellent barbarian/adventurer in the Conan vein. Cuda appeared first in Caliber Presents in the eighties alongside James O' Barr's initial Crow installments.

Then there was the Cuda B. C. one shot from Vigil's own Rebel Studios. Later came a four issue mini from Avatar Press, featuring some of Vig's best art at times. Avatar also collected the early Cuda stuff and the B. C. one shot into the eighty page Cuda 0, and the mini series into TPB form.

Also Tim Truman did a three issue series updating and adapting the old pulp character the Spider around 89 or 90. Very interesting stuff there. Also Truman's Prowler character was a pulp styled hero.
