Issue 13 of ace Dan Dare magazine Spaceship Away — a stunning A4 sized full colour glossy magazine published three times a year — is due for release at the end of October, but a teaser image of the cover is now available for review over on spaceshipaway.org.uk

As well as featuring all-new adventures of the original Dan Dare, Spaceship Away also features that other classic British science fiction story, Journey into Space (reprinting strips originally featured in Express Weekly comic). Hal Starr, created by Jeff Hawke creator Sydney Jordan, is another mainstay of the magazine, previously unpublished in English – or the UK, for that matter.

Spaceship Away costs £6.99 per issue for UK residents and £10.00 per issue for international subscribers. The difference is due to postal costs.
