Offered is a VF/NM (Very Fine to Near Mint) lot of Atari Force issues #13, 14, 16, and 18 through 20, published by DC Comics in 1984. A cult-classic sci-fi series based loosely on the Atari video game brand, Atari Force developed into a dynamic, spacefaring team book with rich characters and sweeping cosmic storytelling far beyond its licensing origins.
Created by Gerry Conway and José Luis García-López, with contributions from writers like Mike Baron, this second half of the series delves deeper into the team's evolving relationships, galactic threats, and philosophical themes of identity and rebellion. These issues are increasingly scarce, particularly in VF/NM condition, as later issues of the series had lower print runs.
