Buck Rogers in the 25th Century,
the first, best, and original science-fiction newspaper strip, has it
all - space ships, anti-gravity belts, space pirates, invaders from
other worlds, nefarious villains, and, of course, heroes. Comic strip
historian Maurice Horn notes that Buck Rogers in the 25th Century
"introduced most of the staples of science-fiction plotting" to the
American public - as well as to everyone else in the world who read it.
Beginning in September 2008, Hermes Press will begin a complete reprint
of the ground-breaking newspaper strip in a 9" x 12" landscape format, 2
strips per page. Reprinting over 900 strips, 2 years of the daily strip
are presented in Volume One, beginning with the first strip
dated January 7, 1929. A special 16-page color section contains an essay
on the strip by a leading science-fiction author to place the series in
historical perspective together with documentary materials and
production artwork. See and experience the thrill and awe of the
precursor of Star Trek, Star Wars, and every other science-fiction story to come after!
