British Update: More Classic Comics Compilations – Charley’s War and Dan Dare
*Collected Editions: One of the more gratifying phenomena of recent years has been the systematic reprinting of classic British comic strips, bringing them to an entirely new generation of readers, and in many cases shedding light on previously lesser-known creators. We have two such volumes new in: Charley’s War – The Definitive Collection Volume 2, ‘Brothers In Arms’, continuing the sequential reprinting of Pat Mills and Joe Colquhoun’s groundbreaking war strip from the 1970’s Battle weekly: and Dan Dare – ‘The Earth Stealers’, re-presenting yesteryear’s Pilot of the Future from Eagle, featuring the talents of Bruce Cornwell, Eric Eden and Don Harley. Both of these are brand-new; Charley’s War is a trade paperback, black & white with some colour pages (following the pattern of original publication) at £20, while Dan Dare is a full-colour hardcover at £30.
