One night, while Sketch is working on Comix Zone during a storm, a massive lightning bolt strikes outside his apartment, somehow affecting the comic book too. Sketch Turner (スケッチ・ターナー), a "starving artist" and freelance rock musician, is working on his newest comic book, named the "Comix Zone." Comix Zone is the story of the New World Empire's attempt to defend Earth from an invasion of alien renegades, with inspiration coming from Sketch's (oddly vivid) dreams and nightmares. The video was made in 1992, displaying the animation of how the gameplay and the comic book elements would blend in. The game was originally from a concept video animated by Peter Morawiec titled "Joe Pencil Trapped In The Comix Zone".

It became a great success due to its game-play, and is released on many collections and consoles since. Sprites and backgrounds possess the bright colors and dynamic drawing style favored by superhero comics.Ĭomix Zone was widely criticized for being released too late and for being too hard and short, but it was positively received, and praised for its great game-play, graphics, and soundtrack. The dialogue is rendered within talk bubbles with the typical comic font. Each level consists of two "pages" and secrets are discovered by shredding the "paper" and revealing items.
The game's most remarkable feature is that it is set within the "panels" of a comic book.
