Favourite Comics From The Fabulous Fifties!

Posted: August 25, 2011

Ah those Fabulous Fifties! To tie in with the 60th anniversary of the Festival of Britain and to preview one tumultuous decade from my massive forthcoming book, 1001 Comics You Must Read Before You Die, I’ll be giving an illustrated lecture about such revolutionary Fifties comics characters as Dan Dare, Dennis the Menace, Astro Boy, Asterix, Andy Capp, the new Green Lantern, and many more at Wokingham Library in Berkshire. Admission is free, so I look forward to see you on September 8th at 7pm.
