A while ago (here) I looked at a book that, according to most of the comments that were left, most people seemed to reckon was about the best book people ever found in the school library. Copies of the series seem really hard to track down so I was delighted to spot this copy on ebay and swipe the photos from it.
So without further ado here's more examples of Gerry Embleton's art from the "...with Nick Raven and the S.A.T.A.N. Squad" series, this time we're Lost in the Amazon...
Impressively the story is written by the leader of the Wallace Expedition to Amazonia (1978) - kudos.
A curious, and rather battered, volume from my collection...Yes, it's Nick Raven and the S.A.T.A.N. Squad.
Illustrated by Gerry Embleton and with a script by well-known comics writer Scott Goodall MBE (Scott was appointed an MBE in 2005; he died in 2016).
My copy was formerly owned by a school (and it shows!) and...
...the format is that you get half a page of comic strip per page and half a page of factual information. The comic strip runs across the top half of each double-page spread...
...so you get 15 pages of comics action in total and technical drawings by Dick Eastland, Mike James, Eric Jewell, Barry Salter and (new Eagle cutaway artist) Peter Sarson.
There appear to have been 4 books in the series in total (see below) but I'm struggling to find images for them - can you help?
