Anyone Remember Quantum Leap?


I loved this show when it came on. The comic book lasted about a dozen issues and was published by Innovation Comics. This is the Christmas issue that I wrote. It was a play off of the Jimmy Stewart Christmas classic "It's A Wonderful Life." Each issue, like most of the episodes of the show, had to have a touch with the past, a little sidebar if you will about something that was going on in the time period that Sam had leaped into. Mine for this issue was actually two things, one I had Sam look at a 45 rpm of the Beatles "She Loves You" but as it was first issued on the Swan label before Capitol Records decided to distribute the group. And the second was the recall of Flubber. This was a toy based on the Disny movies, but the toy seemed to cause a lot of problems. I'll have to look up my information on Flubber, it was pretty interesting, they ended up having to bury it all in a dump site to get rid of it if memory serves me right.
I am fairly proud of this issue, I think the story turned out pretty good. I only have one copy of the comic left for myself, I've given so many out over the years.

I remember that show. I wasn't aware of the comic though.
