Background:
In 1995, Omni Magazine created Omni Comix in an attempt to bring science fiction comics to the forefront of the industry. The first issue was attached as a supplement to the March 1995 issue of Omni and featured stories which combined both comics and prose fiction to tell classic sci-fi tales. In the story “High Guard,” American astronauts pilot an experimental rocket in a race against time to beat Russia to the moon. The tale “Mission to Mars” follows the adventures of an unlikely group of adventurers who plan to journey to Mars to investigate a strange monument discovered on the surface of the red planet. The unique combination of both prose and comics makes for an interesting read, and fans of science fiction literature will enjoy the high adventure and mysterious governmental conspiracies that permeate these stories.

GeekRoom Grading System: Action Figures, Cards, Comics, Magazines, & Toys
Mint: A never-used collectible in perfect condition with complete packaging (including instructions, original attachments, tags, and so on) identical to how it appeared on the shelf in the original box.
Equivalent CGC grade 9.5 or above

Excellent: Used, but barely. Excellent is a small step under Mint, but Excellent can have very minor signs of wear. The wear must be a normal, desirable part of aging or so minor that it’s barely noticeable and visible only upon close inspection. Damage of any sort is not “very minor.” Wear or minor, normal factory flaws should be noted. (Factory flaws are small blemishes common at the time of manufacture — a tiny air bubble under paint, for example.)
Equivalent CGC grade 8.5 to 9.4

Very Good: A well-cared-for item that has seen limited use but remains in great condition. Item and instructions are complete and undamaged but may show some signs of wear.

Equivalent CGC grade 7.0 to 8.4

Good: Item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition. The original instructions are included and in acceptable condition. The item may be marked, identified, or show other signs of previous use. The item works perfectly and is in good shape overall.
Equivalent CGC grade 6.0 to 6.9

Fair: Items have considerable wear: scratches, worn paint, chips or decals missing. Parts may be missing. Original packaging has considerable damage as well.
Equivalent CGC grade below 6.0
