Foreign Comics Cover Thread (Other than American)

207 posts in this topic

A couple of early Manga style books from the late 1960s or early 1970s. The title may be in kanji ("Strong Iron Man"), but some of the other characters look more Korean than Japanese. Any Asian language specialists out there?

The bulk of the images I've looked at (haven't seen ALL the pages to this thread) seem pre-occupied with (foreign) versions of American comics.

 

To change direction, and provide you with a taste of some of my own country's home-grown comic-strips, here are a couple of covers from the UK's EAGLE - featuring 'Dan Dare, Pilot of the future':
