British Update: A Miscellany of Boys’ Adventure & War
*Boys’ Adventure & War Comics: A plethora of new Boys’ Adventure and War comics new in stock, spanning six decades! From the 1930s, early issues of the venerable story-paper Hotspur, commencing with the fifth issue; from the 1940s, the strangely makeshift Crime Comic Album, a one-off (we assume) produced in the wake of wartime import restrictions; from the 1950s, not only manly adventurer Steve Samson, but also a handful of Rocket, the Eagle-imitator which featured home-grown space explorers such as ‘Captain Falcon’ as well as US imports ‘Flash Gordon’ and ‘Brick Bradford’; the 1960s bring us token additions to Boys’ World, home of ‘Angry Planet’, ‘The Iron Man’, and ‘Wrath of the Gods’; in the 1970s, we have a selection of the rather nifty Vulcan, reprint cornucopia of the best of IPC/Fleetway adventure series, from #1 up and in the 1980s, a token Tiger from 8/5/82 with a free gift bonus!
