Item description
5.5" x 8.75", 256 page hardcover with dustjacket titled DAN DARE, PILOT OF THE FUTURE: A BIOGRAPHY by Daniel Tatarsky/ Orion Books, Great Britain, ISBN # 978-0-7528-8896-5, First printing, copyright 2010/ Aimed to a British audience with fond memories of reading the Dan Dare comic strip in the Eagle during the 1950s-1960s, this is an enthusiastic biography of the founder, Rev. Marcus Morris, and the strip's illustrators, beginning with Frank Hampson.
Interestingly, the strip was intended to counteract the imported American comics out of fear of their influence on children. This was during the 1950s comic book panic in the U.S. The Eagle attempted to teach moral behavior and the British way of life and can be traced to church publications. Have a rough go during the post-WWII paper shortage, the realistic drawings created many science fiction technologies, pre-dating Star Trek's teleporter--no mention of Forbidden Planet which used similar special effects. Plot synopses of issues are given and there are lots of illustrations, including tie-in toys.
The book is complete and in FINE condition with some overall light wear mainly to the dustjacket.
