Here's a fun little forgotten strip that even I'd totally forgotten about, until I came across some old Valiant's at a con recently. Sergeant Strong is a kind of family friendly MACH 1, from long before 2000AD came along and gave old school comics like Valiant a kick up the backside.
Although this is 1975, it really feels like the mid '60's, and as drawn by Eric Bradbury, the adventures of superpowered superspy Simon Strong would've sat nicely inbetween that week's House Of Dollman and Kelly's Eye.
We still had an Empire in those days ( in people's minds if not in reality ) and Sergeant Strong is as comfortable and as British as a round of toast and an old pair of slippers. Irresistible.
Say, he does seem awfully pleased to have his own strip, doesn't he? And he's absolutely rocking that cravat.
