Downthetubes.net are reproting that the Dan Dare books have been put on hold whilst the publishers, Titan Books reassess the releases. Apparantly poor sales are to blame.
What a tragedy if this line is discontnued. Titan really have done these books proud, giving us glorious, HC colour releases. I just hope that a household name like Dan not selling, doesn't also indicate a similar decision is on the cards for the rest of the British comics they've been collecting (Charley's War, Steel Claw, The Spider, Modesty Blaise, James Bond, and any new ones they had planned).
Like I said, a real shame! :(
Alan!
