Spectrum - The Worlds of Gerry Anderson
Time Bomb Comics, in partnership with Anderson Entertainment, has worked closely over the past several months to create Spectrum - a unique anthology comic presenting new and original stories for fans of New Captain Scarlet, Space Precinct and Terrahawks.
New Captain Scarlet was a reboot of the original 1960s show broadcast in the 1990s. Using CGI as an evolution of the original Supermarionation puppetry, the show followed the titular Captain Scarlet in his battle against the invading Mysteron aliens.
The Spectrum creative team on New Captain Scarlet is Steve Tanner (writer), Pete Woods (artist) and James Gray (letters).
Terrahawks used an altered version of the Supermacromation style, refined with 1980s technology and incorporating latex hand-puppets. The series sees a ragtag group of humans defend Earth after the destruction of NASA. The Spectrum creative team on Terrahawks is Dan Whitehead (writer), Ste Pickford (artist) and James Grey (lettering).
Finally, the 1990s Space Precinct was a live action series that incorporated puppetry in creating realistic and sophisticated alien characters. A police procedural set in space, it was known for its groundbreaking special effects. The Spectrum creative team on Space Precinct is Richmond A Clements (writer) and James Gray (art and lettering).
The Spectrum cover features spectacular artwork from Steve Pugh, known for his work at DC, Marvel, Dark Horse and 2000AD
