Comics - Cosmos - The Jeff Hawke Fan Club

OVS4 featured a nice article by Ed Berridge on one of my favourite British comic strips, Jeff Hawke. I was a latecomer to the party, which had been running since 1954. I had avoided buying the two Titan Collections when I was a Dredd obsessed teenager, despite two inviting Brian Bolland covers, because I had thought they would be dull, boring, staid. I was wrong.

Now Titan have released four fantastic full stories in a beautiful hardback edition, Overlord, which features some incredibly fresh and vital work by Syndey Jordan and Willie Patterson.

For those who cannot wait for Titan's next release (and I hope it's soon!), then you could do much worse than subscribe to the Jeff Hawke fan club for a year and get three 80-page magazines, each with three complete Jeff Hawke stories, notes, and some warm introductions from Sydney himself.

A subscription is a very reasonable £18.50 in the UK (EU38, Overseas £28), with cheques made payable to the Jeff Hawke Club. Send to The Jeff Hawke Club, 6 The Close, Alwoodley, Leeds, LS17 7RD. Please enquire about back issues and mention Omnivistascope to them if you subscribe.
