Despite all the changes at the helm, Crikey! finally got there: a 52 page, full colour issue!

 

Check out issue #8 and drool over the contents: fabulous artwork by Spanish master Emilio Frejo Abegon as well as more goodies from John Ridgway, Don Harley, Mike Higgs and Brett Ewins to name but a few.

 

Thanks to our friends at DC Thomson, we show you some beautiful artwork last seen over forty years ago in the pages of Diana. The Avengers: Steed, Mrs Peel - they’re all there! Rod Barzilay shows how proud he is of his creation Spaceship Away with some lovely art by Don Harley, C. Weston, Keith Page and Ferdinando Tacconi amongst others.

 

Phil Clarke and Mike Higgs step up to the plate with a glorious rendition of The Phantom in the

UK with art by Walter Howarth (to be featured in Crikey! #9). PFC Tony Ingram shows why he is one of the main writers at Crikey! with his letter home from the front line: The Life and Times of Charley Bourne, complete with the (granted) stunning black and white art of ‘Charley’s War’ co-creator Joe Colquhoun.

The First Birmingham Convention is remembered 40 years on and Peter Hansen follows with an unusual look at one of

America’s greatest - Micky Mouse…what has that to do with British comics? A great deal. Check it out! Mike (The Cloak) Higgs (again!) draws his own Comicy Saturday - and it’s hilarious!

 

If that’s not enough, the next issue (#9 - on sale March) features an exclusive interview with Modesty Blaise artist Romero! ‘V for Vendetta’ co-creator David Lloyd has a chat with us too! Put those with articles on ‘

Roy of the Rovers’; Walt Howarth and ‘The Perishers’ and Crikey! 9is already looking better than issue #8!
