*Miscellaneous 1960 Onwards: One of the benefits of running your own comics business is that you’re able to play favourites. In the 1980s, there were a number of series produced by the smaller independent publishers that I followed avidly and which still remain firm favourites. An example of such is Aztec Ace by writer Doug Moench and usual artist Dan Day. A heady mix of time travel, aviation, ancient Mexico, Hollywood, gangsters, Cleopatra, aliens, crocodiles, a disembodied head and a very unusual cat makes this one of the most intriguing tales in comicdom, even if you have to read it a few times to figure out what’s going on. The stylised art by Dan Day is almost Steranko-like in layout, and the series maintains a unified look despite occasional fill-in artists. Moench’s finest work, in my humble. We only have 9 of the 15 issue run new into stock, but this does include #1 and #15. Well worth snapping up (particularly at the very bargainacious prices) and filling the gaps. (And I got all the way through this without mentioning Dr Who!) See our catalogue for full details.
