Dark Horse Presents #100.2

Dark Horse Presents #100, published in 1995, served as a landmark anniversary issue for the long-running anthology series. Given the expansive nature of the milestone, the publisher divided the material into several distinct volumes, with issue #100.2 functioning as a showcase for a diverse roster of creators. This era of Dark Horse was defined by a commitment to creator-owned works and experimental storytelling, providing a platform for both established legends and emerging talents to push the boundaries of the comic medium.

The design and editorial direction for this issue leaned into the anthology's tradition of stylistic variety, featuring a mix of serialized narratives and standalone shorts. Contributors often utilized these pages to explore niche genres or test concepts that might not sustain a full-length series. Upon its release, the issue was received as a solid representation of the publisher’s mid-nineties aesthetic, valued by collectors primarily for its historical place in the series' progression toward its one-hundredth entry.
