The best of the 1950s Eagle comics in one annual.From Dan Dare- Pilot of the Future- to PC 49- Harris Tweed- Extra Special Agent and Jeff Arnold in Riders of the Range- The Eagle carried numerous strips right from its launch in 1950 through to the sixties. The fourpence-halfpenny weekly also featured plenty of sports coverage and the famous cutaway diagrams of battle ships- steam trains- light aircraft- etc. Taking over the publishing licence from Egmont and Titan- we now have the opportunity to step up the current vogue for retro-futurism: rather than simply re-run straight facsimiles of the comics- the Eagle Annuals of the 1950s and 60s will be drawn from the vast Eagle archive and feature the strips as well as individual drawings/artwork- original advertisements and a present-day narrative. The idea is to create a superior object of desire for boys- lads and dads everywhere....
