*Boys’ Adventure & War Comics: More than 70 copies of the 1980s Eagle revival are new to our lists, dates ranging from 17/9/83 through to 30/3/85 – the latter being the issue before absorbing fallen veteran stablemate Tiger. Although Eagle Mk II is under-rated by many, owing to its first-year habit of running a great many naff photo-strips, by now it was a solid SF anthology, featuring talented creators (John Burns, Oliver Frey, Jesus Redondo, Ian Kennedy, Ron Turner) and popular and well-remembered series such as ‘Manix’, ‘Doomlord’, ‘Danny Pyke’, Valiant-import ‘One-Eyed Jack’, and of course, the third iteration of ‘Dan Dare’. This selection is VG/FN, clean respectable copies, and highlights include the 100th issue (18/2/1984), the first merger with the short-lived Scream, bringing ‘Monster’ and ’13th Floor’ aboard (1/9/1984), and the 1984 and 1985 Holiday Specials.
