Jonny Quest (1986)
Comic
Published
Comico's series, 1986 to 1988, written by William Messner-Loebs
The 1964 cartoon was already a pulp serial in miniature, and Comico's comic took it seriously. William Messner-Loebs wrote the series, which ran 31 issues, and the first issue features art by Doug Wildey, who created and designed the show, alongside Steve Rude, so Jonny, Hadji, Race Bannon and Dr. Quest look exactly right from page one.
It is the pick for anyone who grew up on the show and wants the same jet-age globe-trotting with a little more room for character. For the full Wildey treatment, add the three Jonny Quest Classics issues, where he retells episodes of the show himself.
