Danny Franks

Debuting in the landmark 500th issue of the legendary British anthology 2000 AD back in 1986, Danny Franks is a Fleetway creation born at a genuinely electric moment in UK comics history — and the fact that three of his appearances carry key-issue status tells you this isn't a character who faded quietly into the background. Brought to life by the formidable team of Pat Mills and Glenn Fabry, two names synonymous with the boldest and most visceral storytelling the British scene ever produced, Danny has kept some extraordinary company across his pages — sharing adventures with the likes of Johnny Alpha, Mad Tommy, and the memorably named Flytrap. With 77 catalogued appearances spanning all the way to 2018, this is a character with genuine staying power in the 2000 AD universe, well worth seeking out for any collector who wants to explore the rich, sprawling world that made British comics a force to be reckoned with.
