Glory Knight – Time Travel Courier, featuring art by John M. Burns is on sale now from Hibernia Comics.
“Booked your holidays yet? How about 1066 and all that? Or ten fab days in Ancient Rome? Or our latest package tour to the French Revolution?”
Tumble through time with Glory Knight, Time Travel Courier! From a safari into the depths of prehistory to partying with gangsters in the Roaring Twenties and thrilling adventure with 18th century highwaymen, life as a courier with the Time Travel Agency is never dull!
Introduced by John M. Burns expert, Colin Brown, this marvellous sci-fi romp from the pages of June and School Friend is beautifully illustrated by British comics legend, John M. Burns and has been superbly represented in this 80 page black and white collection with a perfect bound colour cover.
This collection is the character’s complete story, and is available just in time for her first new appearance in over 50 years in the Treasury of British Comics annual 2027, due for release on 25th November.
The stories are bonkers, and many of the usual “rules” of time travel stories broken, but Burns’ art more than makes up for the weakness of some of the storytelling. The Christmas story that rounds out the collection, is quite delightful, and the action adventure elements, dinosaurs and highwaymen among them, are brought to life with aplomb.
As ever, be aware Hibernia’s collections often sell out very quickly, so don’t delay if this crazy chronological comic strip appeals!
