- Elite [$] — Germany, founded 17 December 1988
The "Elite Comeback Intro" marks the group's return to the scene on 6 December 1991, nearly three years after their founding. Conan — one of Elite's four founders — single-handedly coded the intro, created the graphics, and designed the charset. The music credit goes to Demon, using Neil Baldwin's "Snowflakes in Summer" SID composition. A CSDb commenter described it as a "lovely looking intro," and Doc Snyder subsequently documented it on his browser-playable archive. The comeback intro was deployed with the crack of Elvira: The Arcade Game. This is the final entry among six Elite intros in this collection, spanning from the group's December 1988 debut through this 1991 revival. Elite produced 121 releases during their active years, operating from German and American headquarters as a cracking, demo, and import group.
