Dark Horse had a new Kull comic out a few years back - I bought #2 from Forbidden Planet, but I don't know how successful it was.

I liked John Bolton's art in a six-issue mini-series he did for Marvel (I think) around 30 years ago - The Black Dragon.Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07224781868125924337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-69963162931424290202016-05-26T09:23:30.006+01:002016-05-26T09:23:30.006+01:00Hi Kid , the Bolton b/w mag was an issue of Marvel...Hi Kid , the Bolton b/w mag was an issue of Marvel Preview / Bizarre adventures and the colour one was in the baxter paper series.

I've had the original U.S. mags for a good number of years now (one signed by Marie Severin), and as you say, they're absolutely brilliant.<br /><br />******<br /><br />I don't think I've seen that run, Russell - I'll have to Google it. Do you know if there's a collected edition?

The art on this series form the Severin’s (imho) is amazing (John being one of my all-time favourite artists anyway). My first issue of Kull was issue 9 which I recall buying with almost crystal clarity. I picked this up in Blackpool on a family weekend holiday when we were all out for a walk one night (it was a really nice night) passing a street trader (market stall type) I noticed her had literally 100s of comics on sale Kull being one of them. At this time Blackpool was swamped with US comics and Alan Class books, and I must have bought around 50 comics in that weekend. Issue 9, “The Scorpion King”, is my favourite (I can’t recommend this series enough) and I used to spend months copying panels from John Severin’s are from that issue.paul Mcscottyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982725171182221096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-60976423668491958022016-05-25T07:06:17.899+01:002016-05-25T07:06:17.899+01:00Nae bother, BS.

Great as Ploog was, there was something about the Severin issues that's hard to beat.Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07224781868125924337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-6459358655917425152016-05-25T04:35:17.501+01:002016-05-25T04:35:17.501+01:00Ross Andru inked by Wally Wood?
