Dan Dare/Trivia


 * Promoted Fanboy: As a child, Dave Gibbons was a fan of the original 50s strip, and was eager to draw the 70s revival.
 * Science Marches On: The strip put some effort into being scientifically plausible in its early years, even using Arthur C. Clarke as an adviser, but science has marched a long way since 1950. In particular, almost all the planets of the solar system are depicted as being capable of supporting human life.
