Okay, until he appeared in the 200AD Action Special, I'd only ever seen Doctor Sin in a reprinted strip in the 1979 Annual. (I assume it was a reprint as the 1992 Yearbook tells me so!) While the other revived characters in the Action Special are all reasonably well known and sourced in the accompanying article, I've never found out where Doctor Sin appeared originally. Does anyone else know?
I only ask because the Annual strip scared the hell out of me as a kid. Doctor Sin obviously got hair implants before his one-off revival in 1992 and, of all the Action strips, he was the one who looked like the best bet for a series in 2000AD. Instead we got Kelly's Eye.
If you put John Wagner, John Smith, Peter Milligan and Alan Moore in a room together and force-fed them dangerous quantities of drugs, could they come up with anything as mental as the "King of Pop"?
I'd really like to know too :)
Never read the Action special, so not read the article, but an apparent lack of sources in that, combined with a lack of response here, a dearth of info on the web, and the hastily cobbled together state of the only episode available to me (from the 79 annual), suggests that Doctor Sin wasn't published in any weeklies.
Can anyone shed some light on where this strip may have originally appeared, if at all?
