Last prog Ron Smith showed that he could depict the destruction of cities other than Mega-City One. This cover shows that the city in question is about to be wholly destroyed - including the bits that got missed out fifty years earlier. Plus there's dialogue.

The terror of the tagline is a lobster-y, fish-y creature, looking out of the cover at we, the readers (while munching on a diver).ย A note in the corner of the cover tells us that Dan Dare has returned (or more accurately D.D. if you don't know who Dan is from that then it's unlikely … Continue reading Prog 28: Terror at 20,000 Fathoms!
