Hi there Does anyone know where to get Captain Comic 4.0 (ftp-sites). I just loved version one, and would very much like to get my hands on number four. I believe that the zip-file I'm looking for is called COMIC40.ZIP. Thanks a lot Ole ------------------------------------------------------------------- *Now* it's dark... - Frank in Blue Velvet

I think you're expecting that Captain Comic Version 2, 3, and 4 are sequels. They're not. They are the same game exactly, with some minor bug fixes that you probably never noticed as it seems that you finished the game. It's a frustrating way to number the versions, but there ya go... douginoz.

Good lord, they're still working on that? I remember playing it years ago [and I solved it _all by myself_] Whatever came of Part ][ of that? Has one ever been put out?

I believe I've seen Captain Comic II in Electronics Boutique. The author appears to have gone commercial for the sequel.

Yes, it has gone commercial, but it is well worth the $25 or $29 for it. It is very impressive and a lot of effort appears to have been put into it. The graphics are have also been improved greatly! In the game you do everything from the standard shoot and kill the bad guys, as well as riding on a mine car, getting on a snow sled and swimming in underground caverns. There is also quite a bit of adventure in trying to unearth clues and finding objects. Well worth the purchase! Bruce -- Bruce M.

Captain Comic II: Fractured Reality *was* produced and was sold commercialy as are most games and other software. I haven't seen it for myself, but I was told it was available (or possibly still is) in Babbage's for around $19.95. -- .signature not found, format hard disk instead? (Y/N)_ Eric L.
