This hardcover
Logan's Run "Annual" was released in 1978 by UK publisher Brown Watson, and contained - as these uniquely British publications usually did (Do? Do they still publish these things?) - articles and photographs from the short-lived 1977 television series, as well as a handful of newly-created comic book-styled adventures. I have a couple of these "annual" books from other shows, but I don't have this one.
Another British
Logan's Run tie-in from '78 was this issue of
Look-In, which sported this attractive cover painting of
Gregory Harrison and
Heather Menzies as Logan & Jessica, and also contained a two-page
Logan's Run comic story. This is yet another treasure from across the Pond that has eluded me, but on the rare occasions that I actually get to attend comic book conventions, I always keep an eye out for it - especially as the cover copy promises "picture strips" for the
Man From Atlantis, The Six Million Dollar Man, and
The Bionic Woman, as well!
Loved this series ! Watched it all lately and was surprised that it stands up despite its age. Spotted a very young Michael Biehn as a Sandman.
ReplyDeleteThat is a nice painting on Look-In, except where Jessica's "pixie dress" turned into a hospital gown.
ReplyDeleteAs a Brit, 'Look-In' was a regular purchase for me as a kid in the 70's. Some great covers, and some good features and posters inside (in colour too, which was rare for those days). I remember they did a particularly nice job with their 'Battlestar Galactica' cover. I also remember I stuck their Maren Jenson poster on my bedroom wall. Sadly, that's now long gone...
ReplyDeleteI have the annual...and one for the Man from Atlantis as well....they are available now and then on UK ebay
ReplyDeleteI've still got the annual and it's in perfect condition like my Planet of The Apes ones all by Brown Watson. Look in I used to collect religiously because of Logan's Run,but once that finished my interest in the magazine did as well...
ReplyDeleteI used to adore Look-In. Such a great magazine and something you would never see today, sadly.
ReplyDeleteThis is a fantastic blog btw!
I had the annual - its was also available in Australia but after moving house a few times it was lost :-(
