Arcanum is a comic book published by Image Comics in 1996, under the Top Cow banner. The series was created by artist Brandon Peterson, in what was his first attempt at writing a series. It was vaguely a fantasy title, relying heavily on magical themes that were similar to other series Top Cow was publishing at the time. Peterson kept the title going for eight issues plus a 1/2 issue published by Wizard Entertainment, but the series was cancelled by the Top Cow. Peterson wrapped up all plotlines in the final issue.

The slogan makes one thing pretty obvious: Arcanum is a world of magic and fantasy which is slowly entering industrial revolution.
You should never forget that Arcanum is a class-less RPG, and that you have absolute control in how you develop your character: if you want a wizard, you will develop magic skills, if you want a technologist, you will develop your technology skills.
