Tekno Comix
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tekno Comix published comic books between 1995 and 1997. The company was founded by Laurie Silvers and Mitchell Rubenstein (best known for developing the American Sci Fi Channel) as a division of their publicly traded company, Big Entertainment. The Tekno Comix brand was discontinued in 1997, though books featuring the same characters continued were published with Big Entertainment branding for the rest of that year.

Big Entertainment continues as Hollywood Media Corp. Today, the Tekno Comix intellectual property is controlled by that company.[1]
