Pendulum's Illustrated Stories

Pendulum Press's Illustrated Stories (1990–1991) adapted classic literature into a six-issue comic series, bringing the works of Jules Verne and others to a new audience through the visual storytelling of artists Fred Carrillo and Romy Gamboa. With scripts by John Fago and Otto Binder, the series offered a compact, accessible entry point to timeless tales, blending educational intent with the vibrant energy of comic book art. It stands as a concise, creator-driven effort to bridge literary and sequential art during the early 1990s.
