Display : PAL& This is a slideshow of about 24&digitized pictures taken from the Cry&For Dawn comics.

From that I'm&assuming the disks' compiler, Jake&Roberts, has gained permission to use&the pictures. The address of C.F.D
Productions is also included.& It doesn't surprise me that the&comics' producers would allow a&slideshow to be made as many viewers&will seek them out after seeing these&pictures. All the fantasy art seen&here is superbly drawn. Dawn, who I&assume is the buxom lady shown here&and not the daily event we mortals are&more used to, is displayed in and out&of a wide range of various costumes.&There's nothing too explicit but some&of the poses are, shall we say, a bit
suggestive.& The mostly grey-scale digitising is&all very well done, as are the few&colour pictures - Dawn's a redhead it&would seem. Jake Roberts has also&written the music to go with the&slideshow which, like the subject&matter, is suitably moody and
atmospheric.& Dawn unfortunately only seems to&have about three facial expressions&and the bits of text shown here, all&to do with fear and terror, lays&everything on with a trowel. Such are&fantasy comics. Well drawn though and&way better than the war comics I gave&up on as a child, turning instead to
Walt Disney.& If you're a fan of fantasy art or&comics but haven't yet seen Cry For&Dawn then this slideshow would be a
