In 1962 Frank Bellamy was asked to draw a new Roman epic strip for the Eagle, written by Tom Tully. At the pinnacle of his artistic skills, this new commission gave him a unique opportunity. The new strip Heros the Spartan was being presented on the centre double page spread of the Eagle. This enormous canvas gave Bellamy a format few comic strip artists ever achieve or even dream of. The double page format enabled Bellamy to create the greatest comic strip adventure ever presented to the public.
He excelled himself with revolutionary page and panel design and dramatic ink line work all in glorious colour and his ink lines and colour work on this strip have yet to be equalled by any other artist on any strip. In interviews, Don Lawrence acknowledged Bellamy as being the biggest influece on his artwork.
Universally regarded as THE greatest British comic strip ever produced the art has never before been reprinted since its initial publication in 1962.
This is without doubt, the most ambitious project that Book Palace has invested in, and the production costs reflect this. They took the decision to reproduce the Heros pages to the same size as they first appeared in the Eagle comic some sixty years ago.
This means that each spread runs over two pages, the binding on this book is such that each spread opens out without information getting lost in the gutter. The whole book was designed to emphasize the panoramic feel and to reinforce this cinematic effect.
