Apocalypse Ltd was a short-lived publishing company formed out of an alliance of Pat Mills, John Wagner, Alan Grant and Kevin O'Neill.
This was not the only strip that suffered problems; Marshal Law began to miss issues, and some of the material replacing it proved not to be as popular.
[2] This hurt the title as although it had sold well initially, sales were dropping and it became clear that there were problems with Apocalypse paying creators.
These problems meant many creators, such as Mike McMahon,[citation needed] saw work published which they had not been paid for.
Another title, Primal, created by Clive Barker, was never published, although it did later appear via Dark Horse Comics, which also picked up several of Toxic!
