  • COMICS+Scifinow+Feature+On+
    Comics-wise, France's Metal Hurlantand the pre-superhero American tradition (Weird, Eerie) provided his inspiration. During this remarkably long gestation period - partly the result of missing a launch deadline, partly Sanders apprehending Mills was cooking up "something special" - a hiccup occurred when a public outcry followed not long after the February '76 launch of Mills's revolutionarily gory and anti-authority Action. That October, Action was briefly taken off the stands to be cleaned up. "The disastrous press obviously had an effect on 2000 AD and stories that were originally much tougher and much harder suddenly had to be toned down," says Mills. Nonetheless, 2000 AD would remain an edgy concoction: "Action had very much a street consciousness and there's a spillover of that into 2000 AD." Additionally, "You wrote a character with some humanity in, it would bomb. You wrote a character who was totally brutal and totally ruthless, the readers would love it. John Wagner and I had both observed this trend in reader taste, so what you might call a traditional hero just didn't cut it." He happily found that the nature of the new comic gave him something of a get-out from higher-ups' disapproval: the sci-fi backdrops served to make the violence and harsh ambience seem less 'real'. An indication of just how much thought went into 2000 AD is Mills's work on the comic's look. He admired the high standards of Spaniards like Carlos Ezquerra and Italians like Massimo Belardinelli. However, though he commissioned Continental artists, he also felt them to be a little dull compared to technically inferior British ones.

  • Comic Books, Science (Fiction) and Public Relations
    3 Comic books, science (fiction) and public relations Ian Horton Introduction Comic books have a long but mostly unwritten history in the field of public relations yet they have had a significant impact on society throughout the twentieth and into the twenty-first century. Notable British examples from the 1980s included: AARGH! (Artists’s Against Rampant Government Homophobia) created to protest against Clause 28 of a government bill banning the ‘promotion’ of homosexuality, Strip Aids designed to raise awareness of Aids and Raymond Biggs’ anti-nuclear weapon graphic novel When the Wind Blows (Sabin, 1993:102–4). In the early 1980s the Department of Health created an anti-smoking campaign that pitted DC Comics Superman against the supervillian Nic O’Teen and more recently comic books have been extensively used in health campaigns across the world, a development that has received some critical attention through the emergence of the Graphic Medicine network and associated conferences for both academics and practitioners.1 Figure 3.1 Advertisement Superman Vs Nick O’Teen, Health Education Council, Department of Health, United Kingdom, 1980. © Crown copyright. Public relations comic books are just one sub-set of a wider field of practice that comic book artist and theorist Will Eisner has categorised as informational comic books and this study explores how public relations comic books differ from those that have a more commercial intent which might be considered as promotional or even belonging to the world of advertising. These terms will be defined specifically in relationship to ideas of public engagement using comic books from a range of different genres before focusing on examples from science (fiction) and concluding with a detailed examination of two recent examples in the public relations field The Asteroid Belter: The Newcastle Science Comic and Dreams of a Low Carbon Future both published in 2013.

I am extremely grateful to them all for allowing me to draw on their memories to piece together the complex and entertaining story of the various papers covered in this book. First and foremost I must thank the former staff members of Look and Learn and Fleetway Publications (later IPC Magazines) for making themselves available for long and often rambling interviews, including Bob Bartholomew, Keith Chapman, Doug Church, Philip Gorton, Sue Lamb, Stan Macdonald, Leonard Matthews, Roy MacAdorey, Maggie Meade-King, John Melhuish, Mike Moorcock, Gil Page, Colin Parker, Jack Parker, Frank S. Pepper, Noreen Pleavin, John Sanders and Jim Storrie. My thanks also to Oliver Frey, Wilf Hardy, Wendy Meadway, Roger Payne and Clive Uptton, for detailing their artistic exploits on the magazine. Jenny Marlowe, Ronan Morgan, June Vincent and Beryl Vuolo also deserve thanks for their help filling in details that would otherwise have escaped me. David Abbott and Paul Philips, both of IPC Media, Susan Gardner of the Guild of Aviation Artists and Morva White of The Bible Society were all helpful in locating information and contacts.
