Invasion 1984 - Paperback, 128 pages, 2nd May 2019
British comics’ take on War of the Worlds beams down for some classic comics carnage!
SPACE INVADERS!
1984. Skeletal-looking alien warriors have invaded the Earth, bringing many large cities like London to the brink of total destruction! Taken by surprise, mankind must now dig deep to survive! In Britain the tough-as-boots military outfit known as Storm Squad mount the fightback against the ‘Spooks’ while professor Ed Lomax looks into a way of permanently ridding the plant of this unearthly foe for good!
Ha, brilliant! I'd always hoped we'd get a chance to reprint Invasion 1984, so I'm delighted to see Rebellion jumping on that one - it's a great tale with some lovely Eric Bradbury art, and it's going straight on my list :-)
Fantastic to see Death Wish turning up too, as that's a cracking strip even in its later Eagle run where it all gets a bit bonkers.
