British Update: TV Tornado Warning!
*TV & Film Related Comics: From 1967 and 1968, 15 new issues of TV Tornado, the peculiar weekly which sought to cash-in by featuring Batman, Superman, Green Hornet, Man From U.N.C.L.E., Flash Gordon, the Phantom, and Tarzan – a pretty random line-up which also performed a bait & switch by having some of the hotter features appear only as illustrated text stories, rather than as comic strips. Nevertheless, TV Tornado enjoyed quite a degree of popularity, and this selection of additions includes a very attractive issue #1, VG, at £50, (pictured) and several of the later issues which, following the demise of its stablemate Solo, featured the story of Captain Scarlet’s nemeses the Mysterons, enhancing its appeal to Gerry Anderson fandom.
