About the author

Frank Bellamy was a British comics artist, best known for his work on the Eagle comic, for which he illustrated Heros the Spartan and Fraser of Africa. He reworked its flagship Dan Dare strip.

He also drew Thunderbirds in a dramatic two-page format for the weekly comic TV Century 21. He drew the newspaper strip Garth for the Daily Mirror. His work was innovative in its graphic effects and sophisticated use of colour, and in the dynamic manner in which it broke out of the then-traditional grid system.

Reviews

[Sterling Wesson · Rating 3 out of 5]

Not bad, but I finished it in under an hour and I really don’t know if it needed to exist? I feel like a nice article would get the same thing across.

If you're a fan of the artist Frank Bellamy, get a copy. This is the only writing by his son, David Bellamy and what a great job he did on this. He shows all the pictures that Bellamy did for the Radio Times for Doctor Who. He also shares some personal thoughts having lived through Bellamy's very productive career.
Beautiful book
