Product Description

Review

"Frank Hampson's Dan Dare is the most thrilling and accomplished work ever published in the comics form in Britain." - Philip Pullman, His Dark Materials"


Product Description

It's chocks away once again as Dan Dare, Pilot of the Future, returns! First published in classic British comic "Eagle", this is perhaps the most seminal adventure of one of Britain's best-loved characters, presented in a gorgeous library edition. Dan, Lex and Digby - with their alien guide Lero - finally make planetfall on Cryptos, but Flamer is missing. Unfortunately, there's no time to search for him, as the Phant invasion has begun! With a new friend - the alien creature Stripey - in tow, our heroes begin a dangerous quest to stop the Phants...a quest which will take them to the Phant homeworld, and a showdown with their leader, Orak! Can Dan and his crew fight a desperate battle to save two worlds?

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic British Comic Hero, 16 Dec 2008
By Mr. A. Willmer "Mojo Pin" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
I got into Dan Dare through my grandad who was a big fan. Even despite it's age I'm always struck by how fresh these comics are. The characters are well fleshed out and ever amusing. The landscapes seem exotic and spellbinding even in an age where we are used to multi million dollar special effects. However, it's the fantastic plot lines that really keep Dan Dare alive. As I was reading through 'Rogue planet' I couldn't help but feel relieved that I had the next issue reprouced on the next page. Having to wait a whole week for the next issue, for the resolution of the cliffhanger must have been murder!

And it's so British as well. Not that I have a problem with comics from overseas but there's something so funny about having a character proclaim: 'It's not the Phants I'm worried about - it's food! Oh, for a Bob's worth of Fish an' chips!' as Digby does. Would you get the stiff upper-lipped-ness of Dare in a marvel comic? Would an alien ever be referred to as 'one of those chaps'? I think not!

Dan Dare is a weird mixture of the future that never will be and a past that never was (if that makes sense!). It's so funny, so vibrant I think it's a classic that has - and will continue - to stand the test of time. Go and buy it!
