THE RETURN OF DON STARR - IN AN APPOINTMENT WITH FEAR! GUEST APPEARANCE BY THE RUBBERMAN...

Copyright relevant owner

Amazingly, it's been nearly four years since secret agent DON STARR (from POWER PACK paper TERRIFIC) appeared on Crivens!, so rejoice, because he's back to thrill and astound you in an APPOINTMENT With FEAR!  In a rare ODHAMS crossover, The RUBBERMAN from stablemate SMASH! turns up in a flashback which explains how recycled villain DOCTOR FEAR survived his seeming death a year earlier.  Want to see more, frantic ones?  Then let me know in the comments section.  (You don't ask, you might not get.)

That is pretty good. I have never seen it before. What happens next, Kid?

You'll see when I publish the next episode later tonight, JP. Incidentally, the previous episodes are all on the blog. Just type Don Starr into the blog's search box.

Will do! Thanks.

No bother, JP.

Been trying to find the complete rubberman run from SMASH but no one seems to have it anywhere on the web. Any chance you know if its available

There are data discs available of Smash! on ebay from time to time, but those apart, I'm unaware of where else you could access the strips. (There's a Rubberman strip from one of the Smash! Annuals on the blog somewhere though.) Your best bet would be to email Rebellion, who own the copyright, and ask them if they have any plans to reprint the series in their Treasury of British Comics line. If they're aware there's an interest (so best get your pals to email them too), then it may well happen. The Missing Link/Johnny Future strips are due out in April, so Rubberman could well be a contender for a future (npi) release.

The ebay disc are always incomplete so looks like i will have to give it a miss.

Like I say, contact Rebellion and let them know you'd love to see a Rubberman collection.
