British Comics Update: Alan Class File Copies – Weird Planets
*Alan Class Reprints: From the personal archives of Alan Class, we’re delighted to present another selection of copies certificated by Alan himself. Half a dozen copies of the pre-decimal title Weird Planets, including #1. The file copies were used by Alan Class for reference and are sometimes in variable condition, but usually quite good. All Alan Class titles had an emphasis on horror and mystery science fiction and fantasy stories, but none more so than Weird Planets in its short 23 issue run. The work of Ditko and Kirby was also to the fore in this series. A reminder that you can view some detail of the contents in our Rough Guide to Alan Class Reprints.
