Editor Richard Starkings gave me a full page for this one, so I was able to be a bit more inventive with the layout. And hopefully provide more daftness per square inch.

I hope you enjoyed it. Please leave a comment to let me know what you thought.
I'll upload another Combat Colin adventure in a week or two. In the meantime, I'll be blogging about other stuff.
Below: The 1987 issues of Action Force where this serial first appeared.
Puntastic. Kinda makes me hanker for a Combat Colin compilation book of some sort though.
ReplyDeleteIn the tradition of all good comic book nerds I'd like to quibble over a glitch instead of adding anything useful. So, is Colins face a bit yellow in the bottom left hand pane? :) Oh, and love the tall panel of the milkmen falling over the cliff. Thats the kinda thing that I used to clip out of comics and pin up in my room as a kid. Hilraious all by itself, needs no explanation.
ReplyDeleteThanks folks. Yes, there were a few colouring mistakes in those days of colour being added with acetate overlays. Combat Colin was coloured in the office by the Marvel staff. They did a great job.
ReplyDeleteCraig, I'll do a Combat Colin collection one of these days, when I have time to scan all the pages.
