Description
### First Comics – Jon Sable, Freelance #10 (March 1984)
Written & Illustrated by Mike Grell
_Triptych_ — the tenth issue of _Jon Sable, Freelance_ — showcases the gritty storytelling and noir-style artwork that made Mike Grell’s independent comic one of the defining titles of 1980s mature adventure comics. Created, written, and illustrated by Grell, the series follows Jon Sable, a mercenary-turned-writer navigating danger and double lives in a grounded, character-driven universe.
Issue #10, titled _Triptych_, presents a complex narrative structure that weaves together multiple perspectives — a storytelling device that demonstrates Grell’s cinematic approach to comic writing. Known for its realism and bold visual style, _Jon Sable, Freelance_ later inspired the short-lived 1987 television adaptation starring Lewis Van Bergen.
