Dan Dare

In 1977, Les Humanoïdes Associés revived the classic British space hero Dan Dare for a brief but striking four-issue series, with Frank Hampson—the original artist from the character's 1950s Eagle days—returning to illustrate this new run. The series updates the clean-cut pilot's interstellar adventures for a more mature, sci-fi landscape, bridging the gap between his post-war roots and the burgeoning European comic scene. While short-lived, it remains a notable touchstone for fans of Hampson's meticulous artwork and Dan Dare's enduring legacy.
