Brand new Dan Dare strips!

Post by Lew Stringer »

If anyone here isn't already aware of it, there's a great publication called Spaceship Away which publishes brand new Dan Dare strips in the style of the original Eagle comic. The pages are even drawn by Don Harley, one of the original artists, and the comic is officially licensed from the copyright holders so it's not just a "fan tribute" or bootleg. This is the real deal.

The current issue, No.8, also features excellent Jet Morgan reprints and begins a "new" Syd Jordan strip, Hal Starr, which I believe has never been published in the UK before.

There are also features on the Hampson studio, etc. All in all it's a fantastic package. Expensive, but only published three times a year and worth every penny.

See the Spaceship Away website for more details:
