British Update: Long Hot Summer: Eagle Summer Specials (1st series)
*Boys’ Adventure & War Comics: There were only two Summer Specials from the first series of the famous Eagle title. The first, in 1962 was called ‘Holiday Extra’ and the second, in 1966 was in fact a ‘Summer Special’. The first features two complete Dan Dare stories (with some colour pages) plus plenty of other picture strips and features including the famous cutaways. Dan also appeared in the second, alongside Eagle regulars Iron Man, Heros the Spartan, Blackbow the Cheyenne and many other features and stories. Both nice, unmarked, flat condition; staples a little loose on 1962, but still quite firm.
PICTURED: BOTH SOLD
