British Update: Pow! from Power Comics 1968
*Power Comics: The Power Comics line from Odhams Press, which ran from the mid-late 1960s has a special place in British comics history and in the hearts of many readers of the time. With a unique blend of classic Marvel reprints (and sometimes DC newspaper strip reprints), together with original British strips in both adventure & humour departments, they offered something for everyone and were probably many readers’ first exposure to the Marvel Silver Age. In this last instalment of an original owner collection, we have a nice consecutive run of Pow! between #65 and #83, all from 1968. You get Spider-Man & the Fantastic Four, with original British strips such as ‘Experiment X’, ‘Dr. Morg, Master Of Fear’, ‘The Cloak’, ‘Dare A Day Davey’, ‘The Two Faces Of Janus’, ‘Georgie’s Germs’ and many others. In addition, the Odhams editorial team adopted a very Marvel Bullpen style of communication to endear themselves to the readership. News from the Floor of 64, anyone? Full details in our catalogue.
