These wonderful examples of Frank 'Dan Dare' Hampson's art were up for sale recently. Painted long after he's stopped work on the strip. I was interested to see that the Mekon image went for the most money. I'd have got the Dan one myself.

Some rare 'Martha Washington goes to war' variants for you to track down. All produced by Dave's local comic shop back in 1994. Anyone got any of these?

Anyone here know anything about 'Something wicked' (from publishers Futurequake)? From 2017. Cover art by Dan Cornwell I reckon.
