Judging by the ad on the back, wasn't this a standard DC comic book from the States, with a custom drawn Frank Bellamy artwork front cover applied.
Ah really, that's interesting and useful, thank you Mike :)
Ian

A spine appears to have been added to the comic book and I think this is what holds the new front cover in place.

I've bought an old 60's DC comic so as soon as it arrives I'll glue my cover in place :wink:

I saw a post somewhere years ago where someone had identified the exact comic that was used but I can't remember where I saw it now.

Yes Michael it is :) I'm just waiting for the white paint to dry before doing the lettering.
I'm also working on the claws in order to build the full costume. I always believed it was a black body suit, I didn't realize until yesterday that the outfit was actually a black long sleeve leotard on top of dark blue tights. Very odd items to choose for a man to wear.

This also turns up in the episode Epic during one of the scenes set inside the disused film studio.
