Bartman was a short-lived series that told the tale of Bart Simpson’s superhero alter-ego, Bartman. It was one of the four ‘premiere’ series released by Bongo Comics in late 1993. The Bartman series lasted only six issues, and was canceled in 1995. Many smaller Bartman stories have since been published in Simpsons Comics and Bart Simpson comics.
The main writers and artists for the first three issues were Steve Vance and Bill Morrison, who were behind the creation of Bongo Comics itself. In late 1994, Steve Vance and his wife Cindy left Bongo Comics. The Bartman comic was put on hold and there was a gap of 9 months between Bartman #3 and #4. #4-6 contained a three-issue story arc written by Gary Glasberg and Bill Morrison, and with issue 6, Bartman was discontinued.

Kong of Skull Island is a twelve-issue comic book series published by BOOM! Studios from 2016 to 2017. It is an official prequel to Merian C. Cooper’s King Kong, a 2005 rewrite of the novelization of the original 1933 King Kong film by Joe DeVito and Brad Strickland, and part of DeVito’s Kong of Skull Island property.
Kong of Skull Island was revealed on April 7, 2016 in an interview with writer James Asmus conducted by Comic Book Resources. In the interview, Asmus revealed that the comic would be illustrated by Carlos Magno, known for his work on several Planet of the Apes comics. Asmus stated that when developing the idea for the comic, he approached the estate of Merian C. Cooper, Kong’s original creator, to discuss the official King Kong mythos and determine a point in time to focus the story around. Asmus said he was interested by the idea that the natives actually fled to Skull Island, and decided to have the comic focus on this time in the mythos. The comic was originally envisioned as a six-issue limited series, but following publication of the second issue, BOOM! Studios announced that it would be upgraded to an ongoing series.
