"Over the centuries, mankind has tried many ways of combating the forces of evil... prayer, fasting, good works and so on. Up until Doom, no one seemed to have thought about the double-barrel shotgun. Eat leaden death, demon..." — Sir Terry Pratchett
In 1996, a special one-shot based on the hit video game DOOM was written to be given away at gaming conventions. Initially dismissed among fans for its less than stellar quality, it gradually gained a cult following over the years for just how transcendentally insane it was and has since become a huge influence on the franchise itself.
( Happy spooky month, everyone. )
