The Robyn Holiday Letter - Late '90's
This full-size comic book page illustration features one of the main characters
from Dan O'Connor's years-in-the-making Spy-Fi Noir epic "Prisoners Of Progress",
of which Mike was nice enough to take on lettering duties.
The unpublished series has recently started being unearthed, restored, and has been mentioned in
DanO's regularly depressing comics blog.
Mobre's take on Dano's stuff is always super-cool.
The page is undated-- circa 1996-1999

The Westgate III Letter - 1999
The Westgate story referenced here was a classic MOBRE-style comedy spoof, written and penciled by Mike and based on a goofy security memo posted by the local shopping mall to all of its the individual stores. I worked a crummy day job in one of them at the time. I jokingly sent Mike the memo in one of my regular mailings and The Westgate Story came back.
