...and here's Oliver Frey and Ian Kennedy again. Just wonderful stuff. The 80s Dan dare remains one of the great uncollected, unreprinted comics. If it was collected it would have to be in a landscape format I think, far too much detail & dialogue in the centreline of these spreads...

NEW VIDEO: It's Ramparts, a game I stumbled across when looking for a CPC version of Rampart. Came out the same month as Rampage which it rips off. I wonder if US Gold thought they'd get the licence and Activision got it instead.

Born in Częstochowa, to Bronislawa and Dawid Kozak. The Germans took their factory away. Polish nuns hid the Kozaks from the Germans. It's close to miraculous she survived. In the 1970s, she did a PhD on women munition workers in WW1 at Hull. May her memory be a blessing.

573 years ago, on the 29th of May 1453, Sultan Mehmed II captured Constantinople after a 53-day siege. This signalled the definitive end of the Byzantine Empire, and by extension the Roman Empire.
