What’s Old: A Scottish Vulcan
A couple of years ago, we were very fortunate to acquire 2 complete runs of the very rare Scottish Vulcans, which were gobbled up by our eager customers at prices between £40 and £100 each virtually as soon as we listed them. Except one. For some reason, the 10th May 1975 issue survived and, amazingly, is with us still. We’d only ever seen a handful of these before then, and none since. For those who might not know, Vulcan was ‘piloted’ exclusively in Scotland for 30 issues in 1975 before being launched nationally (without repeating material) towards the end of that year. Classic strips all the way: Mytek the Mighty, the Spider, Saber, King of the Jungle, the Trigan Empire, the Steel Claw, Kelly’s Eye and Robot Archie — the very cream of Boys’ Adventure. Our sole surviving Scottish Vulcan is VG/FN at £55, pictured here. And for those on a more modest budget, we have plenty of the National Edition in stock as well at less rarified prices.
