Launching in 1983 , First boasted a strong line-up of creators - Frank Brunner , Mike Grell , Howard Chaykin , Joe Staton , Steven Grant , Mike Baron , Steve Rude , Tim Truman and Jim Starlin - but its titles met with variable success and the company eventually went under in 1991. Probably its best-known titles were Chaykin's satirical futuristic cop series '' American Flagg ''; the space Superhero series '' Nexus '' by Mike Baron and Steve Rude ; an action/superhero/fantasy/comedy series called '' Badger '', also by Baron; and Mike Grell 's '' Jon Sable '', which was briefly adapted for TV. First also published a series of comic adaptations of the ''Eternal Champion'' books by Michael Moorcock . The final major project was a revival of '' Classics Illustrated '' with top talents. Dark Horse Comics would later reprint the Lone Wolf and Cub series, and finally complete it. In 2005, IDW Publishing revived Jon Sable and GrimJack with new miniseries and reprint collections of the First Comics issues, and would also publish a complete collection of Mars. TITLES
