About the series
Dan Fraga, Ford Lytle Gilmore, and Janak Alford drove this five-issue Image series from 2000, a high-octane, CGI-infused sci-fi spectacle that blended traditional art with early digital techniques. Following a team of elite operatives piloting transforming vehicles, The Gear Station stood out for its pioneering use of computer-generated imagery by the G23 CGI studio, marking an early, bold experiment in the fusion of comics and 3D animation. Its brief but visually explosive run remains a distinctive artifact of Image's turn-of-the-millennium push into cutting-edge storytelling.
