Description

Space Fleet Operations Manual by Rod Barzilay.

Dan Dare is easily the most famous British comic hero. His adventures appeared in the original Eagle magazine during the 1950s and 1960s, but he also featured briefly in 2000AD before returning in the re-launched Eagle of the 1980s.

This innovative Haynes Manual takes a detailed look inside the spaceships, space stations and various other craft that played such a huge part in bringing the excitement of space travel to the stories.

Beautifully illustrated with cutaway artwork by Graham Bleathman, and supported by fabulous contemporary comic-strip art, this is the ultimate technical guide to the spaceships of Dan Dare and a wonderful addition to every comic fan's bookshelf.

This book is Hardback.

A futuristic approach to a ‘future of the past’!

The book encapsulated what it was like waiting each week for the next copy of The Eagle. Having Dan Dare taking on the Mekon in his various space ships was central to the enjoyment of the comic. Coupled with this was the weekly centrefold of technical wizardry. This book cleverly combines both elements to perfection. Reading through the text and looking through the various exploded diagrams took me to nstsntly back to my childhood. So, to say that I was impressed with this publication would be a huge understatement. It’s great. Enough said?

Dan Dare book

I bought this book for my 5y old grandson: I am told he really liked the drawings.
Many years ago I used to get the Eagle comic each week: I had numbers 1 to over 100, but my nice collection was thrown away by a relative when I was abroad. Anyhow, perhaps my grandson will like Dare as I did: this book is a very good start.

A trip down memory lane

Any boy who grew up in th '50s will enjoy revisiting Dan Dare and his comrades. The coverage of the other spacecraft is a welcome bonus. Only thing missing is a reproduction of the Horlicks Space Fleet Cap Badge!!!
