    Any Dan Dare fans?





    Looks to be based on the Virgin Comics version drawn by Chris Weston.

    Hmmmm....

    Is that a new version? I remember the original, where he was a standard army-lookin' guy, and the 80's one with the Steel Claw.

      Virigin started a new series a couple years ago now. I picked up a few issues and it wasnt bad, but not as interesting as the older stuff.

      Neat figure though. Who put it out? Character Options? Vivid?

            Garth Ennis did his "tired soldier" bit with Dare.


            The figure is 12".

              Looks like its based on the old space suit.

                  He's awesome. I love anything from the 30's 40's 50's space wise.

                    I only had a couple of issues of Eagle (stuck more to the Beano) as a kid but I always liked the character.

                      I used to have a Archie digest sized (well... a little bit larger) Dan Dare comic with a great full color cardboard cover (like what they used to package toys) from somewhere? Probsbly a hand me down from an older cousin. I remember it had an add on the inside cover for two or three more collected sets. I lent it to somebody and never saw it again. Hadnt even thought of it in probably thirty years until this thread.
