Frank Hampson was perhaps best known as the creator and original artist for Dan Dare, but he also illustrated a number of children’s books for Ladybird. Dan Dare was first published in the British comic The Eagle in April 1950, and was last published as an ongoing series in 1996 — although Dan had undergone more than a few changes by then.

Synopsis

It’s chocks away once again as Dan Dare, Pilot of the Future, returns! First published in classic British comic Eagle, this is perhaps the most seminal adventure of one of Britain’s best-loved characters, presented in a gorgeous library edition.

Dan, Lex and Digby — with their alien guide Lero — finally make planetfall on Cryptos, but Flamer is missing. Unfortunately, there’s no time to search for him, as the Phant invasion has begun! With a new friend — the alien creature Stripey — in tow, our heroes begin a dangerous quest to stop the Phants...

A quest which will take them to the Phant homeworld, and a showdown with their leader, Orak! Can Dan and his crew fight a desperate battle to save two worlds?
