Fine, fine, but did you have to bring Dale and Zarkov along with you? Seems like an unnecessary danger... OtherEric and Kevin.J 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OtherEric Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Note that #30 is the scarce 40c first print. It's one of the few Whitman issues from August-December 1980 that actually got reprinted once the distribution mess was solved for a while, presumably related to the movie.

OtherEric Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 And we reach the end of the run. It's surprising to me the character hasn't done better in US comics, this is really the only successful run and even then it's not that impressive considering how well known the character is: Kevin.J and Yorick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have all the old serials on video and DVD somewhere, I have to find and watch them again at some point, they remind me of Saturday morning local cinema in the early 70s, there would be a monster movie like Gorgo, followed by Flash/Buck and a few cartoons. Great run of comics, its been good to see them altogether, I think I still need a few to match you OtherEric and Yorick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of talented artists, but we need some PKD writing! There's a Millar-verse book called Starlight which I enjoyed quite a bit that thematically matches FG.
