Adventure 4, 1986

 


Cut, paste, Tippex and photocopy days. The artwork may not have been that great back then but it was fun and for some reason zines kept selling out.

Adventure 4, September 1986. Crime Busters UK and Link go up against Beta Man and the Metal Man makes his first appearance.  Kotar and Sabuta are there to witness the coming of The Ghost (also on front cover). Meanwhile two hard working  cops look into the mysterious deaths and try to find out just who Wild Mane is.

Meanwhile Jon Future in his civilian guise gets into a car with agents of Special Intelligence which is then blown up by the international hit man known as the Marksman.  In the second part of his origin story the Owl (David Holmes) looks into the murder of his old friend and that leads to some nastiness close to home.

The Avenger and Purple Hood breach the headquarters of Intercrime and the Mad Cutter makes his first appearance.  In Guppy Terror (seriously) an injured Duncan McCrae (aka Barracuda) washes up on an island where he meets the mysterious Laguna before finding himself captured by the Black Shark's crew.

40 pages of black and white fun from a time when making comics was fun and there was a comic creators community.
