Thunderbirds is a British science-fiction television series created by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson, filmed by their production company AP Films (APF) and distributed by ITC Entertainment. It was produced between 1964 and 1966 using a form of electronic marionette puppetry (dubbed “Supermarionation”) combined with scale model special effects sequences. Two series were filmed, comprising a total of 32 episodes. Production ceased after Lew Grade, the Andersons’ financial backer, failed in his efforts to sell the programme to American network television.

Set in the mid-2060s, Thunderbirds is a follow-up to the earlier Supermarionation productions Four Feather Falls, Supercar, Fireball XL5 and Stingray. It follows the exploits of International Rescue (IR), a life-saving organisation equipped with technologically-advanced land, sea, air and space rescue craft; these are headed by a fleet of five vehicles named the Thunderbirds and launched from IR’s secret base in the Pacific Ocean. The main characters are ex-astronaut Jeff Tracy, the founder of IR, and his five adult sons, who pilot the Thunderbird machines.

The Comic

============================

Thunderbirds: The Comic was a comic published by Fleetway. The first issue went on sale on October 19th 1991 and originally retailed @ 65p, rising to £1.15 by the time of the last issue.

Each of the first three issues came with a free Thunderbird badge on the cover and the series ran for 89 issues before being cancelled in March 1995. The comic was a mixture of the original cartoon strips produced in the 1960s for the TV 21 magazine and the centre pages contained a cutaway drawing by Graham Bleathman.

============================

In November 2000, The Redan Company Ltd. launched a new comic aimed at young children.

A typical issue had comic strips, (containing real photographs from the episodes), competitions, puzzles, and quizzes.

The main feature of the comic was the center page spread of a cutaway drawing by Graham Bleathman. Another illustrator called Lee Sullivan produced many of the covers for the series.

The comic had 32 pages and the original copies retailed for £1.45. This went up to £1.50 by issue No. 8, and kept on rising steadily with inflation until reaching £1.95 by issue 89. For the first 10 issues the comic was published monthly moving to 3 weekly from issue 11. Throughout the comic the young reader was encouraged to remove pull-out sections or colour in pages, making it very hard for collectors to find copies in a pristine condition. To make matters worse, every issue contained a free gift sellotaped to the front cover. If the gift was removed, the magazine would get tarnished in the process.

The Thing is Big Ben began publication on 28th March 1984. A Marvel UK title, its title star was Ben Grimm, the Thing, hence the play on words to produce the somewhat clunky title; charitably, the title gave a British air to the comic by giving Ben Grimm the same nickname as the world famous bell in the Palace of Westeminster Clocktower, though more cynical commentators suggested the name was chosen as a prod at ex-Marvel UK editor in chief Dez Skinn’s Big Ben character, then appearing in Warrior’s Marvelman strips. The Thing is Big Ben’s main strip reprinted Marvel Two-in-One. The series cancelled after 18 issues, plus one Summer Special, with the weekly title merging into Spider-Man.

Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles

Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles? In the late 1980s, that’s the name that the heroes in a half shell had to go by in the UK…

When the 1990 movie Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles made it into British cinemas, there was a disparity that became immediately apparent to the youth of the UK. For a year or two by that stage, the animated Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series had been playing on television around the world. Yet in the UK, it went by another name.

The series that British children were shown was pretty much the same, apart from the fact that it was now called Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles. The title card for the TV show had been changed to reflect the new title, the song slightly altered, and the opening sequence edited. Furthermore, any scenes from the show that saw Michaelangelo fighting with his nunchaku were edited out. There were mild language tucks, too. For instance, the word ‘bummer’ was edited out as well, given that it was deemed a slang term for anal intercourse.

Yet why did the title have to change in the first place?

Well, this was down to the British government of the time. It was on the offensive against violence in children’s television, and in particular ninjas and nunchuks were in the firing line (the film A Very Brady Sequel, for instance, was effectively unreleasable for a long time in Britain, courtesy of a scene with a nunchuk in it). As such, in spite of the pre-existing comic line, it soon became clear that ‘Ninja Turtles’ wasn’t going to be allowed near the impressionable youth of Britain.

Thus, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles had to be renamed – along with most of the merchandise and licensed products that accompanied it (including the tie-in videogame) – although the aforementioned feature film didn’t have to change its moniker. But then it wasn’t being screened on children’s television, and thus managed to escape the alterations.

The change in the UK title also affected other European countries. Across the likes of Austria, Germany, Norway and Belgium, they got Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles too. Subsequent reruns have given the show its original title back, and it’d be fair to say that the Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles name is pretty much no more. Ninjas, in the long run, defeated Heroes.

Sweeney

The Sweeney is a 1970s British television police drama focusing on two members of the Flying Squad, a branch of the Metropolitan Police specialising in tackling armed robbery and violent crime in London. The programme’s title derives from Sweeney Todd, which is Cockney rhyming slang for “Flying Squad”.

The programme was shot entirely on 16mm film by Thames Television’s film division, Euston Films. It originally broadcast on ITV between 2 January 1975 and 28 December 1978 at 21:00–22:00 weekday (usually Monday) with repeated showings at the same time until the early 1980s. It starred John Thaw as Detective Inspector Jack Regan, and Dennis Waterman as his partner Detective Sergeant George Carter. Such was its popularity in the UK that it spawned two cinema released feature film spin-offs, Sweeney! and Sweeney 2.

The series was broadcast during a dark period for the real-life Flying Squad, which in the late 1970s had been publicly censured for being involved in bribery, police corruption and excessively close links with the criminal fraternity. Unlike the unwavering high standards seen in the fictional Sweeney, the actual commander of the Flying Squad, Detective Chief Superintendent Kenneth Drury was convicted of five counts of corruption and imprisoned for eight years on 7 July 1977. An internal investigation, called Operation Countryman, was then launched to further stamp out corruption. A further 12 officers were convicted and many others resigned.

In 1977 and 1978, publishers Brown Watson (who specialised in annuals based on TV series’) published two editions of ‘The Sweeney Annual’ featuring a mix of comic strips (some with art by Brian Lewis) and illustrated text stories, interspersed with occasional features on the TV series, articles about policing, puzzles and (in the 1978 annual) an interview with John Thaw and Dennis Waterman.

In the early 1980s, the comic Jackpot featured a strip called “The Teeny Sweeney” which was originally drawn by J. Edward Oliver. A trio of schoolboys played at being plain-clothes policemen, with two of them looking like little versions of Regan and Carter. They even had “Flying Squad” written on the side of their cartie. Their attempts at being helpful, however, almost always ended in disaster.

Super Detective Library was a digest sized, 188 page comic with painted covers and black and white interiors that ran from 1953 to 1960 and appeared twice a month.

It featured a rotating roster of detective and science fiction stories from English, Canadian and American artists and writers, and an artistic and writing style that you don’t see anymore.

Most issues were original stories and art, however they would from time to time fill the S.D.L. with reprints of newspaper strips such as America’s Rip Kirby.

The years are possible not accurate because at first there were 2 issus each month but after the change of publishers 1 each month.

Starburst

Starburst is a British science fiction magazine published by Starburst Publishing Limited. The magazine is published monthly, with additional news and reviews being published daily on the website.

Starburst was launched in December 1977 by editor Dez Skinn with his own company Starburst Publishing Ltd. The name Starburst was settled on after rejecting other names, including Starfall, as Skinn considered it too negative. Starburst was then purchased by Marvel for publication of issue 4 onwards, as part of deal whereby Skin was put in charge of the UK comic reprints division.

Marvel eventually put the title up for sale and it was bought by Visual Imagination and published by them from issue 88 (1985).

Starburst’s review sections were edited by writers and reviewers such as Alan Jones (films) and David J. Howe (books), and, for several years, the magazine also carried a column by the writer John Brosnan. Its television review column, “TV Zone”, was used as the title of its sister publication TV Zone.

The magazine’s publication was put on hold due to Visual Imagination folding in early 2009, having reached issue #365. An online only version of the magazine existed following this closure. It returned to print by Starburst Magazine Ltd in February 2012 with issue #374.

Shiver and Shake was a British comic magazine published every Monday by IPC Magazines Ltd. It ran from (issues dates) 10 March 1973 to 5 October 1974, when it merged with Whoopee!. As in the tradition of British comics many names of strips were a play on popular television programmes and films of the time. Similar to Monster Fun later, the theme of the strips were mainly horror (albeit of a comic nature). Indeed Frankie Stein appeared in both comics. Borrowing from the successful Whizzer and Chips, it was two comics in one; Shake being a pull-out section from Shiver. The main star of Shiver was a ghost of the same name, whilst Shake was an elephant. Both had their own strips in their respective sections (The Duke’s Spook and Shake), The Duke’s Spook changing to Shiver after its merger. In 1973, the comic also featured a one page strip starring stand-up comedian Charlie Williams.

Information thanks to the Grand Comics Database

Marvel Super-Heroes Secret Wars was a fortnightly title launched by Marvel UK on 27th April 1985, reprinting the American Marvel limited series of the same name (originally a twelve issue epic starring the Avengers, the X-Men, the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man and the Hulk) with a backup feature starring Canadian super team Alpha Flight beginning in #2. The first issue gave away a free gift in the form of a set of rub-down transfers (several subsequent issues gave away superhero stickers, which were usually impossible to remove from the cover without destroying it), and there was also a long running two page humour feature, ‘Marvel’s Secret Artist’, about a hit and run caricaturist who would sneak into the Marvel offices and draw grotesque portraits of Marvel characters (later, this series was replaced by the spoof superhero Macho Man). With issue #10, the title was shortened to just ‘Secret Wars’, and with #16, Alpha Flight were replaced by a limited series starring Iceman of the X-Men (Alpha Flight would return in #19). Issue #19 also introduced a new feature, toy tie-in strip ‘Zoids’, and from #20 the title changed to ‘Secret Wars featuring Zoids’, as the Zoids strip took up its new regular home in the centre pages. Issue #25 saw the end of the Secret Artist strip, and an exclusive three page Spider-Man story tying into the Secret Wars strip, written by Jim Shooter, which the Americans never saw (it actually followed up the UK originated Spider-Man strip the previous year). The Zoids feature ended in the same issue, but they would return in new weekly Spider-Man and Zoids.

With issue #31, both the Alpha Flight strip and the original Secret Wars story ended, and from #32 the title changed to ‘Secret Wars II’ as Marvel began reprinting the sequel series, and from #33 the backup strips became a little erratic as Marvel began reprinting, somewhat randonly at first, the issues of various other US titles which Secret Wars II had tied into (or some of them, at least) including the Avengers, Captain America, Spider-Man, the X-Men, Iron Man and the Fantastic Four. As the series progressed, so Marvel UK’s editing of the various US titles (or sometimes just parts of them) became more and more inventive, making this series a version of Secret Wars never seen anywhere else before or since (in some cases, balloons are re-lettered to change elements of the story to fit the new timeframes being presented). Frequently, in these issues, the crossover material actually squeezed out the main Secret Wars II strip, though from #57 onwards this practice was stopped (unfortunately, they did begin missing out chunks from the original strips more and more often from this point).

Alpha Flight made a brief return in #39 and #41, while Lew Stringer’s humour strip ‘Macho Man’ debuts in #42 (and lasts until #79). The series concluded with issue #80 0n 17th January 1987, with an epilogue appearing in Spider-Man & Zoids the following week. There were also two specials published, Marvel Super-Heroes Secret Wars Special #1 in 1985 (reprinting material from the first two issues of the original series) and Secret Wars II Special #2 in 1986 ( reprinting material that tied-in to the ongoing series), and a Marvel Super-Heroes Secret Wars Annual in 1986, also reprinting the first couple of issues of the series yet again.

Robo-Hunter is a recurring strip in the British Comic 2000 AD, initially written by John Wagner and illustrated by Ian Gibson. The series starred Sam Slade, a laconic, ageing, cigar-smoking bounty hunter of robots that have gone renegade. Though action oriented, the series was noted for its humorous tone.

The character first appeared in 1978. José Ferrer was the original artist, but the editorial team were not happy with his work and quickly replaced him with Ian Gibson, who redrew parts of Ferrer’s episodes before taking over himself.

Red Dwarf

Red Dwarf is a British comedy franchise which primarily comprises ten series (the ninth being a mini-series) of a television science fiction sitcom that aired on BBC Two between 1988 and 1993 and from 1997 to 1999, and on Dave in 2009 and 2012, gaining a cult following. In May 2015, it was announced that Series XI and XII will film back-to-back later in 2015 and will air exclusively on the Dave channel in 2016 and 2017. The first episode of Red Dwarf XI will air at 9pm on Thursday 22 September 2016 on Dave and will be available via streaming service UKTV Play from Thursday 15 September 2016.

The series was created by Rob Grant and Doug Naylor. In addition to the television episodes, there are four novels, two pilot episodes for an American version of the show, a radio version produced for BBC Radio 7, tie-in books, magazines and other merchandise.

The Red Dwarf Magazine – the magazine part of the title changed to “Smegazine” from issue 3 – was launched in 1992 by Fleetway Editions. It comprised a mix of news, reviews, interviews, comic strips and competitions. The comic strips featured episode adaptations and original material, including further stories of popular characters like Mr. Flibble, the Polymorph and Ace Rimmer.

Notably, the comic strip stories’ holographic characters, predominately Rimmer, were drawn in greyscale. This was at the request of Grant and Naylor, who had wanted to use the technique for the television series, but the process was deemed too expensive to produce. Despite achieving circulation figures of over 40,000 per month, the magazine’s publisher decided to close the title down to concentrate on their other publications. A farewell issue was published, cover dated January 1994, and featured the remaining interviews, features and comic strips that were to feature in the following issues.

Ranger was a British comic book magazine, with occasional printed stories, published by Fleetway Publications for 40 un-numbered issues between 18 September 1965 and 18 June 1966. The title was then incorporated into Look and Learn from issue 232, dated 25 June 1966.

The title was created by Leonard Matthews but edited by John Sanders, with Ken Roscoe as assistant editor and Colin Parker as art editor.

The content was a mixture of factual articles, photo features and comic strips designed to appeal to boys.

Nowadays it is best remembered as the birthplace of the science fiction strip The Rise and Fall of the Trigan Empire originally drawn by Don Lawrence which ran continuously from issue 1 of Ranger until the final issue of Look and Learn in 1982.

Misty

Publisher: IPC
Publication Dates: 4th February 1978 – 12th January 1980
Number of Issues Published: 101 (#1 – #12th January 1980 [101])

Incorporated into Tammy (IPC, 1971 series) in 1980.

Information thanks to the Grand Comics Database

Misty was a British comic for girls published by Fleetway in London from 4 February 1978 until 1984, after merging with Tammy on 19 January 1980. It consisted of a collection of many small strips, with the stories themselves normally being three or four pages long. As well as the weekly comic, Christmas annuals were also published.

While there were similarities with its Fleetway stablemates Tammy and Jinty, each comic had its own focus, with Misty concentrating on supernatural and horror stories. These consisted of complete stories, text stories, and serials. Complete stories focused on come-uppances, monsters and other menaces, tales of sorrow or lightheartedness, and some made their point without supernatural elements, such as Mr Walenski’s Secret and Sticks and Stones. Text stories were initially new stories, but later shifted to retellings of British ghost stories, some of which were submitted by readers.

Misty had no regular characters except for the cartoon witch, Miss T. This cartoon attracted debate among readers as to whether its comic relief weakened or complemented the dark tones of Misty. After the merger, Miss T joined the Edie strip in Tammy, which eventually became The Crayzees when Snoopa joined in the Tammy and Jinty merger on 28 November 1981, and continued until the Tammy and Princess merger on 7 April 1984. “The Cult of the Cat” and “The Black Widow” were the only Misty stories to have sequels, although the sequel for the latter was published in the merger.

Artists featured in the pages of Misty included John Armstrong, artist on Moonchild (though best known for drawing Bella in Tammy), Joe Collins, artist on Miss T, Brian Delaney, John Richardson, Badia, Jesus Redondo, Ken Houghton, Peter Wilkes, Eduardo Feito, Bob Harvey, Honiera Romeu, Barrera Gesali, and Mario Capaldi.

Writers featured included Pat Mills, Malcolm Shaw, and (possibly) Barry Clements. Mills is credited with Moonchild and Hush, Hush, Sweet Rachel, and Shaw with The Sentinels.

Look-in was a children’s magazine centred on ITV’s television programmes in the United Kingdom, and subtitled “The Junior TVTimes”. It ran from 9 January 1971 to 12 March 1994. Briefly in 1985 a BBC-based rival appeared called BEEB; another was launched in 1989, Fast Forward, which went on to outsell Look-in.

Look-in had interviews, crosswords and competitions, and it had pictures and pin-ups of TV stars and pop idols of the time. Its main feature however was the many comic strips of the favourite children’s television programmes, all of which were being shown on the ITV network at the time.

When the magazine began publication, it was edited by Alan Fennell and the strips were written by Angus Allan. Fennell left in 1975, and the art editor, Colin Shelborn, took over as editor. The covers in the 1970s were paintings by Arnaldo Putzu, an Italian working in London who had created many cinema posters in the 1960s, including designs for the Carry On films. His Look-in covers were mostly painted using acrylics.

Introduced mainly as a vehicle for children to find out what was on ITV, it included highlight listings for each ITV region, of programmes likely to appeal to its target market, but Look-in also spotlighted popular children’s topics and pastimes of the day. Skateboarding, BMX and YoYoing were all featured in the magazine. Although primarily a television magazine, it also often featured articles on sport such as On The Ball with Brian Moore, as well as science articles written by Peter Fairley. DJ Ed Stewart became a regular face in Look-in, appearing in the first issue in a feature about a day in his life, he was later given his own pages called ‘Stewpot’s Newsdesk’ which ran until 1980. Alan Fennell who edited Look-in wrote episodes for most of Gerry Anderson’s series.

During its run, Look-in annuals and Summer Special issues were released each year. In 2007 Carlton Books published a compilation reprint; Best of the Seventies, under their Prion and Sevenoaks imprints. This was followed-up by a Best of the Eighties the following year.

The House of Hammer was an influential British horror movie magazine that was initially published between 1976 and 1978.

The magazine was the brainchild of comics editor Dez Skinn, who had most recently been editing a revived version of Monster Mag for publishers Top Sellers (one of several imprints of Warner Bros publishing division Williams). Skinn initially conceived of the magazine under the title Chiller, but walking past the Hammer offices each day, he suddenly realised that a tie-in with the world’s most famous horror film production house could be beneficial. A meeting with Hammer was arranged and, thanks to the influence of Hammer’s then script editor Chris Wicking – a comics fan who knew Skinn’s work – a deal was quickly made.

The first issue of House of Hammer was published in 1976. The initial idea for the magazine was for it to be essentially a Hammer Films fan publication, but it quickly became obviously that there would not be enough new Hammer product for that to work (in fact, the second issue ran a piece on To the Devil a Daughter, which proved to be the only Hammer horror film made during the lifetime of the magazine) and so it took on a broader horror film remit.

Giggle

Giggle was a shortlived weekly Fleetway humour comic, published from 1967 to 1968 and billing itself as “adventure and fun for everyone”. It eventually merged into Buster.

The comic ran a notable amount of foreign material. This included “Benoit Brisefer”, a strip by Smurfs creator Peyo, retitled “Tammy Tuff: The Strongest Boy on Earth”; Maurice de Bevere’s “Lucky Luke”, under the name of “Buck Bingo”; and “Herlock Sholmes”, drawn by Yugoslav artist Julio Radilovic

Giggle seems to be a comic that passed some of us by. I certainly wasn’t aware of it back then, not until it had been merged into Buster for a few months. Giggle was published by Fleetway Publications Ltd and its first issue was dated 29th April 1967. Priced at 5d (2d cheaper than its Fleetway companion comics), it was evident that it was trying to directly compete with the D.C. Thomson comics. Even Giggle’s logo, with the framed ‘G’ had similarities to the logo used by The Dandy at the time, and the character Giggle the Playful Cat (who soon became Giggle’s cover star) was evidently trying to mimic the popularity of Dandy cover star Korky the Cat. Despite some nice lively art, he was no Korky…

Fantastic Four

The Fantastic Four is a fictional superhero team appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The group debuted in The Fantastic Four #1 (cover dated Nov. 1961), which helped to usher in a new level of realism in the medium. The Fantastic Four was the first superhero team created by writer-editor Stan Lee and artist/co-plotter Jack Kirby, who developed a collaborative approach to creating comics with this title that they would use from then on.

The four individuals traditionally associated with the Fantastic Four, who gained superpowers after exposure to cosmic rays during a scientific mission to outer space, are Mister Fantastic (Reed Richards), a scientific genius and the leader of the group, who can stretch his body into incredible lengths and shapes; the Invisible Woman (Susan “Sue” Storm), who eventually married Reed, who can render herself invisible and later project powerful force fields; the Human Torch (Johnny Storm), Sue’s younger brother, who can generate flames, surround himself with them and fly; and the monstrous Thing (Ben Grimm), their grumpy but benevolent friend, a former college football star and Reed’s college roommate as well as a good pilot, who possesses tremendous superhuman strength, durability, and endurance due to the nature of his stone-like flesh.

Dice Man

Publisher: IPC
Publication Dates: 1 February 1986 – 1 October 1986
Number of Issues Published: 5 (#1 – #5)

Information thanks to the Grand Comics Database

Dice Man was a short-lived British comic book magazine which ran for five issues in 1986. It was a spin-off from 2000 AD and was edited by Pat Mills, who also wrote almost all of the stories. The stories were designed to be played like gamebooks. Each issue contained two or three such stories and was published every two months.

The comic mostly contained stories based on characters who already appeared regularly in 2000 AD. Its eponymous character Diceman (without the space), also known as Rick Fortune, was created specially for the comic (by Pat Mills and Graham Manley), but did not appear until the second issue. Fortune was a “psychic investigator”, a 1930s American private detective with psionic powers. He also had a pair of stone dice, recovered from the ruins of Atlantis, which he could use to summon various powers including a three-headed lizard demon called Astragal to assist him. The Diceman strip was different from the others in that the reader not only had to avoid being killed, he also ran the risk of being driven insane (if his “sanity score” dropped to zero).

There was only one other story in the comic which was not derived from 2000 AD. This was “You are Ronald Reagan in: Twilight’s Last Gleaming”, a satirical spoof in which the reader, playing the part of the American president, must prevent nuclear war breaking out. This strip was unusual because if the player’s sanity score gets too high, then the Secret Service assume that the president must have been replaced with an imposter (a comment on Reagan’s perceived intellectual limitations). This game was exceptionally difficult compared with the others in the comic, as the player must make irrational decisions to avoid arrest and execution, while trying to make the right decisions to prevent a nuclear launch by either side. In fact the player transpires to have very little control over the outcome, and almost every option inevitably results in World War III, suggesting that nuclear diplomacy is very difficult to control once Cold War tensions have begun.

The other strips which appeared in Dice Man were Judge Dredd, Nemesis the Warlock, Sláine, Rogue Trooper and ABC Warriors. One of the Nemesis stories was unusual because the reader played the part of the main villain in the story, Torquemada.

Countdown was a British comic published weekly by Polystyle Publications – ultimately, under several different titles – from 1971 to 1973. The pages in each issue were numbered in reverse order, with page 1 at the end – a gimmick which was derived from the comic’s title in order to create a “countdown” to the number one every week.

The strips included, many of which were reprinted from TV21

“Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons”
“Countdown” – the eponymous “Countdown” strip
“Dastardly and Muttley”
“Doctor Who”
“Fireball XL5”
“Joe 90”
“Lady Penelope”
“The Persuaders!”
“The Secret Service”

Care Bears

The Care Bears are a group of multi-colored bear characters. The original artwork was painted by artist Elena Kucharik for American Greetings Corporation, LLC in 1981 to be used on greeting cards; but the characters were later used for toys, and in TV programs and films.

The original development was through American Greetings’ “Those Characters From Cleveland” research and development division, In 1983, Kenner turned the Care Bears into plush teddy bears. The Care Bears appeared in TV specials called The Care Bears in the Land Without Feelings (1983) and The Care Bears Battle the Freeze Machine (1984). They then had a television series from 1985 to 1988, and three feature films: The Care Bears Movie (1985), Care Bears Movie II: A New Generation (1986), The Care Bears Adventure in Wonderland (1987).

Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons, often referred to as Captain Scarlet, is a 1960s British science-fiction television series produced by the Century 21 Productions company of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson, John Read and Reg Hill. First broadcast on ATV Midlands from September 1967 to May 1968, it has since been transmitted in more than 40 other countries, including the United States, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. Characters are presented as marionette puppets alongside scale model sets and special effects in a filming technique that the Andersons termed “Supermarionation”. This technology incorporated solenoid motors as a means of synchronising the puppet’s lip movements with pre-recorded dialogue.

Set in 2068, Captain Scarlet presents the hostilities between Earth and a race of Martians known as the Mysterons. After human astronauts attack their city on Mars, the vengeful Mysterons declare war on Earth, initiating a series of reprisals that are countered by Spectrum, a worldwide security organisation. Spectrum boasts the extraordinary abilities of its primary agent, Captain Scarlet. During the events of the pilot episode, Scarlet acquires the Mysteron healing power of “retro-metabolism” and is thereafter considered to be virtually “indestructible”, being able to recover fully from injuries that would normally be fatal.

Captain Scarlet, the eighth of ten puppet series that the Andersons produced during the 1950s and 1960s, was preceded by Thunderbirds and followed by Joe 90 and The Secret Service. In terms of visual aesthetic, the series represented a departure from Thunderbirds on account of its use of non-caricatured puppets sculpted in realistic proportions. Re-run a number of times in the UK and purchased by the BBC in 1993, the 32-episode series has entailed tie-in merchandise since its first appearance, from dolls to original novels and comic strips in the Century 21 Publications children’s magazine, TV Century 21.

In comparisons to Thunderbirds and other earlier series, Captain Scarlet is generally considered “darker” in tone and less suited to child audiences due to stronger on-screen violence and themes of extraterrestrial aggression and interplanetary war. The transition in the puppets’ design has polarised critical opinion and drawn a mixed response from former production staff, although the series has been praised for its inclusion of a multinational, multiethnic puppet cast and its depiction of a utopian future Earth. Having decided to revive the series in the late 1990s, Gerry Anderson supervised the production of a computer-animated reboot, Gerry Anderson’s New Captain Scarlet, which was broadcast in the UK in 2005.

Page including all updates, will be organized in the future.

Blake’s 7 is a British science fiction television series produced by the BBC for broadcast by BBC1, four 13-episode series being broadcast between 1978 and 1981. It was created by Terry Nation, who also created the Daleks for the television series Doctor Who. The script editor was Chris Boucher. The main character was, at least initially, Roj Blake, played by Gareth Thomas. The series was inspired by various fictional media including Robin Hood, Star Trek, Passage to Marseille, The Dirty Dozen, Brave New World, classic Western stories as well as real-world political conflicts in South America and Israel.

World Distributors produced Blake’s 7 Annuals for 1979, 1980 and 1981. These featured stories, games, artwork and articles about space. During October 1981 Marvel UK began publishing the monthly Blake’s 7 magazine, which included a comic strip by Ian Kennedy as well as text stories, features and photographs. Twenty-five issues including two ‘specials’ were published, until the magazine closed during August 1983. Marvel produced two ‘special’ magazines during 1994 and 1995, with much of the content written by television historian Andrew Pixley and about how the series was made. Seven issues of Blake’s 7 Poster Magazine were published between December 1994 and May 1995.

Ballad of Halo Jones

The Ballad of Halo Jones is a science fiction comic strip written by Alan Moore and drawn by Ian Gibson, with lettering by Steve Potter (Books 1 & 2) and Richard Starkings (Book 3).

Halo Jones first appeared July 1984 in five-page instalments in the pages of the weekly British comic 2000 AD and is regarded as one of the high points of 2000 AD. The eponymous heroine is a highly sympathetic 50th-century everywoman, and the tone of the strip runs from the comic to the poignant. The three “books” span more than ten years of her life, and also serve as a tour of the well-realized futuristic universe which Moore and Gibson created. Originally, Halo Jones was planned to run to nine books, chronicling Halo’s life from adolescence through old age. However, the series was discontinued after three books due to a dispute between Moore and Fleetway, the magazine’s publishers, over the intellectual property rights of the characters Moore and Gibson had co-created.

Merges with Mighty World of Marvel

Information thanks to the Grand Comics Database

The Avengers were the second superhero team created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby for the American company Marvel Comics in the early 1960s, following the Fantastic Four. Initially comprised of Thor, the Hulk, Iron Man, Ant Man and the Wasp, soon joined by Captain America, the Avengers soon became a repository for many of “Earth’s Mightiest Heroes” including Hawkeye, the Vision, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch, and the Black Knight. After being introduced to the British public in Odhams weekly title Smash!, they joined the Marvel UK line-up in the pages of Mighty World of Marvel before graduating to their own title. They also occasionally appeared in reprint titles from Alan Class Publishing, either with or without Marvel’s authorisation.

The Avengers, the third title published by Marvel UK after Mighty World of Marvel and Spider-Man Comics Weekly, was launched on 22nd September 1973, after the characters had been given a brief tryout in the pages of Mighty World of Marvel #46-48. The first two issues carried free gifts; a sheet of rub down transfers and an ‘Avengers Wonder Weapon’, respectively. Early issues featured reprinted adventures of the Avengers themselves plus Marvel’s master of the mystic arts, Doctor Strange, but from issue #28 the title gained a third strip, Master of Kung Fu, and the title was changed to ‘Avengers & Master of Kung Fu’ to reflect this; this was an attempt to cash in on the Kung Fu craze which was then sweeping the country. The MOKF sub-heading was later removed from the cover, but the MOKF strip itself continued for some time, alternating in later issues with the similarly themed Iron Fist. From issue #95, Avengers absorbed the failed Savage Sword of Conan weekly, the title of which was duly added to the masthead. The title was cancelled after issue #147 (14th July 1976) and merged with Mighty World of Marvel, though the Avengers themselves would subsequently have a lengthy career in various Marvel UK titles including MWOM, The Titans and, most notably, long runs in both Super Spider-Man and Marvel Super-Heroes Monthly, as well as appearing in Marvel Super-Heroes Secret Wars (although this last series sadly did not continue the unbroken run of Avengers stories which had continued from their first appearance in MWOM to their last in MSH, almost ten years later).

Joe comic book and new UK-exclusive short strips. The G.I. Joe comics were adjusted to fit into the UK strip’s continuity and had all references to G.I. Joe replaced with Action Force, and the UK-exclusive strips maintained a separate continuity from the US G.I. Joe comic. The Action Force comic was cancelled in 1988 after fifty issues due to low sales and was replaced with Action Force Monthly, which was itself cancelled after fifteen issues. The Action Force Monthly title printed new stories as well as reprinting stories from the weekly title. The magazine was released in the US under the title G.I. Joe – European Missions.

In late 1989, the G.I. Joe story reprints were continued in the UK Transformers comic under the name G.I. Joe the Action Force to conform to the toy line. The reprints changed back to G.I. Joe until they were dropped in 1991. In 1995, Panini Comics obtained the Marvel UK licence and began publishing an Action Man comic the following year without reference to Action Force or G.I. Joe.

Zit was an adult British comic that was published by Humour Publications UK, beginning with a free sample issue in January 1991, and with issue 1 in February 1991.

It was one of many such comics similar to Viz, and was also of lower production quality than its inspiration. As well as comic strips, it also included photo strips, joke articles, celebrity references, and adverts for phone lines and mail order products, many of a pornographic or sexual nature.

The owner of Humour Publications, Russell Church, attempted to stir up an aggressive rivalry between his publication and the far more successful Viz, but, as Viz editor Chris Donald stated in his autobiography, “Church’s magazine was so bad he couldn’t give the thing away”. In 1993 Church sued another Viz clone, the Huddersfield-based Spit!, for “passing itself off” as Zit. He pursued the case all the way to the High Court, where the judge ruled that nobody “with reasonable apprehension or eyesight” could confuse the two comics. Church was ordered to pay Spit!’s legal bills, which came to around £32,000. Soon after this setback, Church was sued by the British TV presenter Anne Diamond, following a tasteless reference in Zit to her child’s tragic cot death. This effectively sank Humour Publications, and Zit continued with a different publisher’s backing before vanishing from the shelves in 2002.

Viz is a popular British comic magazine founded in 1979 by Chris Donald. It parodies British comics of the post-war period, notably The Beano and The Dandy, but with vulgar language, toilet humour, black comedy, surreal humour and generally sexual or violent storylines. It also sends up tabloid newspapers, with mockeries of articles and letters pages. It features parody competitions and advertisements for overpriced ‘limited edition’ tat, as well as obsessions with half-forgotten kitsch celebrities from the 1960-80s, such as Shakin’ Stevens and Rodney Bewes. Occasionally, it satirises current events and politicians, but has no particular political standpoint.

Its success in the early 1990s led to the appearance of numerous rivals crudely copying the format Viz pioneered; none of them has managed seriously to challenge its popularity. It once enjoyed being the third most popular magazine in the UK, but ABC-audited sales have since dropped, to an average of 50,750 per issue in 2014 (from 1.2 million).

Information thanks to the Grand Comics Database

Marvel Team-Up was a weekly title published by Marvel UK from 11th September 1980-24th March 1981. A 32 page anthology like most Marvel UK publications at that time, it featured reprints of American Marvel strips from the original Marvel Team-Up title, plus Ms Marvel, the Fantastic Four, What If? and Morbius the Living Vampire. The first three issues carried free gifts-superhero stickers featuring a variety of Marvel characters. The series was short lived, lasting just 25 weekly issues, though there was also a 52 page Marvel Team-Up Winter Special published in November 1980, featuring a full length Spider-Man & Red Sonja team up, plus a Storm/Black Panther backup strip. Marvel Team-Up was eventually merged with Spider-Man & Hulk weekly, which became ‘Spider-Man & Hulk Team-Up for a short time.

Monster Fun

Publisher: IPC
Publication Dates: 1975 – 1976
Number of Issues Published: 73 (#1 – #73)
Color: colour

Information thanks to the Grand Comics Database

Monster Fun was a British comic for young children (7-12). It ran for 73 issues from 14 June 1975 to 30 October 1976, when it merged with Buster to form Buster and Monster Fun.

The first issue contained a free plate wobbler (a novelty item consisting of an inflatable rubber bladder and a hand-operated pump; the bladder is placed under a plate, and inflating it makes the plate wobble). Its comic strips included Mummy’s Boy, (drawn by Norman Mansbridge), X-Ray Specs, drawn by Mike Lacey, “Arts Gallery (drawn by Mike Lacey)”, “Martha’s Monster Make-up (drawn by Ken Reid)”, March of the Mighty Ones, Brainy and his Monster Maker, Cinders, Creature Teacher (drawn by Thomas Williams), Dough Nut & Rusty (drawn by Trevor Metcalfe), Draculass (drawn by Terry Bave), Grizzly Bearhug, The Invisible Monster, Kid Kong (drawn by Robert Nixon), Major Jump Horror Hunter, Monster Hits Jokes and Tom Thumbscrew.

The second issue had a Freaky Spider Ring.

The Third issue had a Super Shaking Skeleton.

Later in the series the popular Gums, Teddy Scare Terror TV (drawn by Ian Knox), began – all 3 of these merged with Buster.

Other later additional comic strips: Frankie’s Diary, Freaky Farm (drawn by Jim Watson), The Little Monsters, S.O.S. Save Our Stan as well as many pull out posters.

The nominal editor was Frankie Stein, who had previously appeared in Wham!, Shiver and Shake and Whoopee!. Artists included Robert Nixon, Tom Williams and Trevor Metcalfe. The Bad Time Bedtime Books insert was created by Leo Baxendale.

The stories that made it into the merger were: Gums, Kid Kong, X-Ray Specs, Mummy’s Boy, Draculass, Teddy Scare, Terror TV, Martha’s Monster Make-up.

Martha’s Monster Make-up, which finished in 1977, Draculass finished in 1977, Teddy Scare, finished in 1978, Terror TV, finished in 1978. Kid Kong continued until the merger with Jackpot in February 1982, Gums continued until the merger with School Fun in June 1984, Mummy’s Boy continued until 1988 (before the merger with Nipper) the later years were reprint material only, X-Ray Specs had the most longevity continuing until Buster’s end (4 January 2000) though as with the all but one of the last Buster strips as reprints.

The logo ‘Monster Fun’ was printed on Buster’s cover until the summer of 1979, due to the popularity of Monster Fun.

Monster Fun Annuals were printed every year, cover dated from 1977 until 1985, though all contained some reprint material. They were all distributed in the UK from the autumn of the previous cover-dated year.

Monkees

The Monkees are an American pop/rock band that released music in their original incarnation between 1966 and 1970, with subsequent reunion albums and tours in the decades that followed. Formed in Los Angeles in 1965 by Robert “Bob” Rafelson and Bert Schneider for the American television series The Monkees, which aired from 1966 to 1968, the musical acting quartet was composed of Americans Micky Dolenz, Michael Nesmith, Peter Tork, and Englishman Davy Jones. The band’s music was initially supervised by producer Don Kirshner.

Described by Dolenz as initially being “a TV show about an imaginary band […] that wanted to be the Beatles, [but] that was never successful,” the actor-musicians soon became a real band. As Dolenz would later describe it, “The Monkees really becoming a band was like the equivalent of Leonard Nimoy [who played the alien officer Spock in Star Trek] really becoming a Vulcan.”

For the first few months of their initial five-year career as The Monkees, the four actor-musicians were allowed only limited roles in the recording studio. This was due in part to the amount of time required to film the television series. Nonetheless, Nesmith did compose and produce some songs from the beginning, and Peter Tork contributed limited guitar work on the sessions produced by Nesmith. They soon fought for and earned the right to collectively supervise all musical output under the band’s name. Although the sitcom was canceled in 1968, the band continued to record music through 1971.

1986 saw a revival of interest in the television show, which led to a series of reunion tours and new records. Up until 2011, the group had reunited and toured several times, to varying degrees of success. Despite the sudden death of Davy Jones on 29 February 2012, the surviving members reunited for a tour in November–December 2012 and again in 2013 for a 24-date tour.

The Monkees have sold more than 75 million records worldwide and had international hits, including “Last Train to Clarksville”, “Pleasant Valley Sunday”, and “Daydream Believer”. At their peak in 1967, the band outsold the Beatles and the Rolling Stones combined.

Publishing Format: Was Ongoing Series

Masters of the Universe (commonly abbreviated MOTU and sometimes referred to as He-Man, after the lead hero) is a media franchise created by Mattel.

Although featuring a vast line-up of characters, the main premise revolves around the conflict between the heroic He-Man and the evil Skeletor on planet Eternia. Since its initial launch, the franchise has spawned a variety of products, including six lines of action figures, four animated television series, several comic series, and a feature film. Designer Roger Sweet claims to be the chief creator of He-Man and MOTU, although this is not officially acknowledged by Mattel and is disputed by some other contributors. The earliest storybooks and much of the original backstory were written by Donald F. Glut.[

Young Marvelman

Publication Dates: February 1954 – February 1963
Number of Issues Published: 346 (#25 – #370)
Color: Color cover; black & white interior
Dimensions: 24.5 x 17.5 cm
Paper Stock: paper cover; newsprint interior
Binding: Saddle-stitched
Publishing Format: was ongoing series

Numbering continued from CAPTAIN MARVEL JR. (L. Miller & Co.; 1953 series)

Dicky Dauntless was a teenage messanger boy working for the Transatlantic Messenger Service who was given superhuman powers like those of his mentor Marvelman by the astrophysicist Guntag Barghelt (he could transform from his normal self into the super powered Young Marvelman by simply saying his mentor’s name, “Marvelman”). He fought crime both alone and alongside Marvelman and Kid Marvelman in Britain in the 1950s and 1960s, taking on villains such as Dr. Emil Gargunza, Young Gargunza and Young Nastyman before fading into obscurity.

Young Marvelman was created by Mick Anglo for L.Miller & Son in the 1950s, and was a fairly generic teen superhero, created as an analogue to the American Captain Marvel Jr. The later revelations about his origins were the creation of Alan Moore writing for Warrior magazine in the 1980s and later for the American series Miracleman published by Eclipse Comics (in which Young Marvelman was duly renamed “Young Miracleman” for the same legal reasons that had prompted Marvelman to become Miracleman; the publishers were afraid of being sued by Marvel Comics. However, since Marvel now own the rights to these characters but not, it seems, to the 1980s stories, that later information may now be considered apocryphal.

– Young Marvelman starred in his own title, as well as in several Young Marvelman Annual’s.
– Young Marvelman was supposedly an American in the Miller & Son series’, but curiously seemed to spend an inordinate amount of time in Britain, particularly in the annuals. In the 1980s revival, however, Dicky Dauntless is quite definitely British. Even in the Miller & Son stories, though, YM’s speech is continually peppered with British terms.

Ran for 1092 issues before merging with Buster comic in October 1990. The original idea was to have two comics in one – Chips could be pulled out from the center of Whizzer.

Whizzer and Chips was a British comic that ran from 18 October 1969 to 27 October 1990, when it merged with the comic Buster. As with most comics of the time, Whizzer and Chips was dated one week ahead of the day it actually appeared on newsstands in Great Britain.

The format of Whizzer and Chips was to have the comic divided into two separate parts, a novel idea at the time. One part was called Whizzer and the other was called Chips, with Chips existing as a separate pull-out section in the middle. The slogan was “Two comics in one, double the fun!”. It had no relation to earlier British comic Illustrated Chips. In the offices at Fleetway, it was always regarded as one comic.

In common with most British comics of the time, both sections originally included some of their strips in semi-colour using black, white, and red (duotone), with others in plain black and white. To reinforce the distinction between the two sections, the duotone strips in Chips were later changed to black, white, and blue. Whizzer and Chips went full colour on the week of 4 May 1990.

The comic Knockout merged with Whizzer and Chips on 30 June 1973, followed by Krazy in 1978,Whoopee! in 1985 and finally Scouse Mouse in 1989.

One ongoing concept was that the two comics were fierce rivals. A guest appearance by a character from one of the comic strips in the story of one in the other magazine would be described as a “raid”, and the other comic would seek its revenge with a raid of its own the following week. The first raid didn’t appear until issue 2.

Readers were encouraged to become either a “Whizz-Kid” or a “Chip-ite”, depending on which section they preferred. The leader of the Whizz-Kids was a boy called Sid and his snake Slippy, from the Sid’s Snake comic strip. The leader of the Chip-ites was a boy called Shiner from the comic strip of the same name, who had aspirations to become a boxer. In the first issue of Whizzer and Chips, Sid’s Snake was on the cover of Chips, as Shiner didn’t appear until issue 2.

Wham! was a weekly British comic published by Odhams Press. It ran for 187 issues from 20 June 1964 to 13 January 1968, when it merged into its sister title Pow!. Although Wham! was superficially a typical British comic in the mould of The Beano, its later issues (under the Power Comics imprint) included short instalments of The Fantastic Four reprinted from American Marvel Comics. To many of its readers, this move destroyed Wham’s originality and style.

The initial success of Wham! prompted the creation of sister titles Pow! and Smash! with similar intent, and led to the formation of the Power Comics line. But as costs rose in 1968, the inevitable adjustment of content, followed by mergers of titles, made the Power Comics more like those they were attempting to replace.

Created by Leo Baxendale, in its early issues Wham! presented both clear imitations of Beano strips, such as a clone of his Bash Street Kids in the shape of The Tiddlers, and new original strips such as Eagle Eye, Junior Spy and Georgie’s Germs in which he attempted to break the mould of older strips by the use of bizarre humour, outrageous puns, and surreal plots.

The cult figure Grimly Feendish, originally the most popular character in Baxendale’s Eagle Eye, Junior Spy strip, with the travelling accomplices (including bats, spiders, octopuses and other creatures of darkness and slime) who assisted Feendish in his schemes of world domination, graduated to his own comic strip in Smash! in 1966.

Strips included :

“Baby Whamster”
“Biff the Humbugs”
“Billy Binns and his Wonderful Specs”
“The Bouncers”
“Danny Dare”
“Doomsday School”
“Eagle-Eye, Junior Spy” (Leo Baxendale)
“Footsie the Clown”
“Frankie Stein” (Ken Reid)
“General Nitt and his Barmy Army” (Leo Baxendale)
“Georgie’s Germs”
“Glugg”
“The Good Sports”
“Jasper the Grasper” (Ken Reid)
“Johnny Straight” (retitled reprint of Zip’s “Wells Fargo”)
“Kelpie the Boy Wizard”
“Pest of the West”
“Sammy Shrink”
“School for Scoundrels”
“The Tiddlers” (Leo Baxendale)
“Tornado Jones”
“The Wacks”

Vulcan

Publisher: Fleetway
Publication Dates: 27 September 1975 – 3 April 1976
Number of Issues Published: 28 (#27th September 1975 – #3rd April 1976)
Color: Colour
Dimensions: Standard Modern Age U.S.
Binding: Saddle-Stitched

Information thanks to the Grand Comics Database

Vulcan was a reprint title used by Fleetway to make use of its back-catalogue of superhero and adventure strips printed in Lion and Valiant during the 1960s and early 1970s. Format-wise, it was something of a departure for Fleetway’s comics, being the same size as an American comic, and featuring good quality paper.

After a trial run in Scotland from March 1975 with an issue dated 1 March 1975, the comic was launched nationally with an issue date of 27 September 1975. It continued for a further 28 issues (the last dated 3 April 1976) until being cancelled and merged with Valiant. Later in 1976 an annual was published.

The following series were amongst those reprinted in Vulcan:

– The Spider
– The Steel Claw
– Trigan Empire
– Robot Archie (which married the art from Bert Bus’ Dutch reprints with the original English scripts)
– Mytek the Mighty
– Saber, King of the Jungle
– Kelly’s Eye
– The House of Dolmann

Tornado

Publisher: IPC
Publication Dates: 31 March 1979 – 18 August 1979
Number of Issues Published: 22 (#1 – #22)
Color: Colour

Information thanks to the Grand Comics Database

Tornado was a short-lived weekly British comic published for 22 issues by IPC Magazines between March 1979 and August 1979. After the cancellations of the Starlord and Action titles IPC launched Tornado as a way to use up stories already commissioned for the other titles. Like Action it was a mixed title featuring War, Detective, Horror and Science Fiction stories. Tornado was printed on the low quality newsprint stock used by 2000 AD and also had 5 stories of 5 to 6 pages per issue. The title also had a ‘superpowered’ editor, like Tharg, ‘Big E’ who was portrayed in photo-strips by a rather portly Dave Gibbons. The real editor was Kelvin Gosnell.

Main stories were:

– The Mind of Wolfie Smith written by Tom Tully, with art by Vincente Vano, was the story of a young boy whose telepathic and telekinetic powers suddenly emerge, leading him to become a runaway.
– Angry Planet written by Alan Hebden, with art by Massimo Belardinelli, was set in the late 21st century on a Mars that had been made habitable by humans. The story told of the struggle of the first generation of genetic ‘martians’ to free themselves from exploitation by Earth.
– Wagner’s Walk was a WW2 story much in the ‘Action’ style as the hero is an escaped German POW fleeing the Red Army.
– Blackhawk, written by Gerry Finley-Day with art by Alfonso Azpiri, was the story of a Nubian Galley slave who rescues his ship from pirates. Granted his freedom and a commission as a Centurion, Hawk forms his own legion out of other slaves who are then treated as a type of “Dirty Dozen”.
– Victor Drago was a pseudonymous revival of Sexton Blake, IPC’s long-running fearless detective, written by Bill Henry with art by Mike Dorey.

Terrific

Publisher: Odhams Press
Publication Dates: 15 April 1967 – 3 February 1968
Number of Issues Published: 43 (#1 – #43)
Color: Colour Cover, Black & White Interior
Dimensions: 7.75″ x 11.25″

Publishing Format: Was ongoing

Information thanks to the Grand Comics Database

Terrific was a weekly British comic published by Odhams Press under the Power Comics imprint. It ran for 43 issues from 15 April 1967 until 3 February 1968, when it was merged with its sister title Fantastic.

Terrific was very similar in format to Fantastic, which had started publication two months earlier. The two titles were quite unlike other British comics of the time, consisting mainly of material reprinted from American Marvel Comics. In this respect they can be considered a precursor of the Marvel UK weeklies, such as The Mighty World Of Marvel, that appeared during the 1970s.

The Marvel titles which were reprinted in Terrific included The Avengers, the Doctor Strange strips from Strange Tales, and the Sub-Mariner and Giant-Man strips from Tales to Astonish.
