*Collected Editions: Two extremely rare items this week. In 2009, Bear Alley Books released two paperbacks collecting the entirety of two cult series: supernatural adventurer Cursitor Doom by Ken Mennell and Eric Bradbury from Smash!, and the Phantom Patrol from Swift, the tale of daring timelost aviators who get involved in sci-fi adventures by Willie Patterson (writer of the ‘Jeff Hawke’ newspaper strip) and Gerry Embleton (as accomplished an artist as his more famous brother Ron). These handsome volumes were only available for a very limited period before, owing to copyright complications the details of which remain unknown, they were abruptly and completely withdrawn from circulation. Each is a handsome large-format paperback, akin to the more recent Rebellion compilations, in black and white with lovely crisp reproduction and a brand new full-colour cover (Cursitor Doom by John Ridgeway, Phantom Patrol by Chris Weston). They’re very lovely collections, and it’s a real shame that you’ll almost never get to see them. Both are NM; Cursitor Doom is £50 and the Phantom Patrol £100. SORRY, THESE HAVE NOW SOLD
