Eagle Comic – Issue No. 295 (14th November 1987)

Step into a world where size really does matter! This late 1987 issue of Eagle presents a classic "giant vs. tiny" scenario on its cover, highlighting the incredible adventures of Blake Edmonds—a fan-favorite character known for his high-stakes survival stories.

Product Highlights

• Dramatic Perspective Cover: A striking visual of a giant-sized character looming over "little people," paired with a snarling German Shepherd and the ominous tagline: "The boy wants to own the little people... the dog wants to eat them!"

• Blake Edmonds Feature: Explicitly invites readers to "See the incredible adventures of Blake Edmonds—inside!" making this a must-have for fans of the scarred racing-driver-turned-hero.

• Original Details: Published 14th November 1987 with the original 28p cover price.

• 80s Aesthetic: Features the bold, 3D-style yellow Eagle logo that defined the magazine's look during the late 80s.

Condition Note

• Front Cover: The colors are remarkably well-preserved, particularly the deep purple background and the detailed rendering of the dog.

• Provenance: Includes the distinctive "Wolton" newsagent sticker in the top right corner, matching the provenance of your other issues and confirming its history as part of a dedicated collection.

• General Wear: Shows very light edge wear and minor softening at the corners. The newsprint is remarkably clean for a comic of this age.

• Interior: Complete and securely bound with original staples; pages have aged to a light, natural cream.

Collector's Appeal

Issue #295 is an excellent example of how Eagle used "Gulliver-esque" themes to create tension and visual interest. It’s a standout for collectors who appreciate the detailed, painted cover style that the magazine maintained long after other weeklies had switched to simpler graphics.
