About this deal

This book is in very good condition and the inside looks unread, the book was printed in the year 2000, it is a hardback book with its original jacket, book size approx 12 inches by 8. All names, characters, images and logos on this site are protected by trademark, copyright and other rights.

Panini had obtained the Marvel UK licence in 1995, with Marvel UK having themselves previously published an Action Force comic during the 1980s.Many of the photos and information in this book is incorrect with many of the Action Man figures dressed in equipment from a variety of outfits. In the years that followed he was given a voice, flocked hair, those famous eagle eyes, hands that grip and a jointed body which allows him to sit - even an action hero has to rest every now and then. We would recommend the Ultimate Collector series by Alan Hall for the most comprehensive list of vintage Action Man figures. Action Man is more than just a catalogue of features, uniforms and accessories; it is the biography of a hero.

Further to the regular monthly issues, Panini would occasionally publish additional issues, including a 'Christmas Special' in 2000. The X-Missions logo was featured on the cover of each issue during the course of the arc, as well as on the boxes of the action figures released between 2005 and 2006. Action Man was a UK comic book series published by Panini Comics, based on the Hasbro toy line of the same name.It ran for 138 issues between 1996 and January 18, 2006 before being surpassed by spin-off series Action Man: A.

The comic strip was the main feature for each issue, with the narratives invariably focusing on Action Man's efforts to thwart the evil plans of his arch enemy, the mad scientist Dr. The images were a mixture of colour and black and white photography, and bespoke line drawings and illustrations. This section had various character-themed names over the comic's course, including 'Action Stations', 'Gangrene's Gunk Mail', 'Antifreezes Cool Mail' and 'Dr X's Hate Mail'.
