Eagle Annual, The Best Of The 1960s Comics

Product Description

The 1960s was unforgettably the swinging decade: England won the World Cup, Neil Armstrong too his first steps on the surface of the Moon & technology was 'white hot'. The Eagle, Earth's greatest boys' weekly comic, also continued to thrive. Dan Dare, of the Interplanetary Space Fleet, was an ever-present, as were the cutaways: & the likes of Jeff Arnold & Harris Tweed also appeared alongside newcomers such as Fraser of Africa & Mike Lane, the Guinea Pig, subject at one point in 1967 to mind-altering experiments with coloured lights. The Eagle Annual: the best of the 1960s comic follows the successful formula of the 1950s annual: strips, features, adverts & editorial are annotated with contemporary captions & longer pieces telling the story of the Eagle's second decade.
