Here's some more of your letters mates!

Dear Steve,

Thanks for your site - I don't know what got me thinking about Action again - but your site is one hell of a trip down Memory Lane! Cheers,

Pete

Steve says: Thanks very much for your comments, it's a big nostalgia trip for me too. Gotta love the old comic, it was brilliant!

Dear Steve,

Hey there, just to say well done on getting the site started. I certainly like what I've seen so far, keep it up! I was still on humour comics when Action was going, I do remember reading Action annuals featuring Hook Jaw and Spinball which I loved, and have since got turned on to old British comics, have read Martin Barker's excellent book. I produce Solar Wind, a homage to seventies/eighties action comics and we have a few stories loosely inspired by Action, such as Death Squid. I'll be at the Web Comix event in London on March 20, and Bristol on May 29/30 if you fancy a chat. My only regret is being unable to get hold of some Actions! I have about three, but they are great. All the blood in the colour Hook Jaw pages! Paul Scott

Steve says: Solar Wind looks great! The graphics remind me of the second phase of 2000AD, very Kevin O'Neill. Glad you like the site, I'm updating all the time so keep visiting.
