Eagle (comic)

The Eagle was a British weekly comic, which ran in two main volumes over the period of 1950 to 1994 (with accompanying annuals). It is strongly associated with its flagship character, Dan Dare (by Frank Hampson in the earlier photographic format), doing battle against the Mekon.

Up until this time, comics had been aimed at both boys and girls, but a definite gender split began to open up, with the Eagle and Girl (1951-1964), clearly aimed at different markets.
