The Looking Glass -Supposed to Have Relaunched Fleetway's Old Hero Line

One of the ideas that then Managing Editor at Fleetway, Gil Page,  liked was Looking Glass which I put together in 1996 with the intention of another artist drawing it.  Couple of things I would "tidy up" but these pages from The Looking Glass that Gil Page asked me to put together are now hitting 30(?!!) years old now.  

IPC gave permission to use their old characters who they had no interest in as "We are not involved in comics any more". So it made a good, complete package.

All 112 pp are still in the folder but legally I can still publish if I wanted to....but it would need redrawing.

It's FUN! FUN! FUN! All the

way (except for the action). Black Tower Comic Fun reprints some of the strips that are now going on for three decades old. Starring Dr Sterno: Man of Science as he attempts to stop a seemingly out of control cyborg from rampaging into Finland...and is betrayed! Dru gives advice on getting a job. The Thinker offers his thoughts on things in general. The Legendary Wrecking Crew pop up. The Iron Warrior gets to work with his huge chopper. Garza shows why he is the jungle boss. And...Garbage World in which intergalactic demolition decides the Earth is a waste tip of sorts. Just one big bundle of fun in black and white and colour!

When urban crime seems to be out of check with the police unable to handle every incident and people too scared to even walk along the road what happens?

Do the police give up as resources are over stretched while the public scream for action? How can the police be everywhere: at every location where there is going to be a minor or serious crime? They can't.

Is vigilante action required?

The early 1980s created Attacker could have been anybody. He appeared in a series of no text strips dishing out violence for violence. 42 years later his/her identity is still unknown. With some takes on the character by Ben R Dilworth and a Preview to the Return of the Gods series this is action all the way.

The Visitor

I have no idea what happened to Niall Richardson but he had a nice art style. This strip is circa 1987
