Not to be confused with Comix Zone. You play as Captain Smiley going into adventures across comic books eventually an manga. This is a side scroller with a lot of variety within the game play. Also expect some surprising humor from time to time. This is an action packed game. I do own it on Xbox but wouldn't mind owning it again on GOG. Comic Jumper gets more strangely interesting the more you play it. There's a lot of creativity to keep the game interesting for hours. The soundtrack just works in ways that's difficult to properly explain. The sound effects are more on the comical side. There's a great cast of characters. This is a game any expectations you had going in. Well throw em away because you aren't ready for this madness!!! Comic Jumper was originally an Xbox Live Arcade game. More recently you can play it on newer Xbox consoles. I do think a lot of people missed out on a surprisingly funny, action packed game. If you wanted a comic book game you're literately inside them. You absolutely need to play this!!!
