1978: FAMOUS MONSTERS BATTLESTAR GALACTICA COVER

Here's another BATTLESTAR GALACTICA cover from Warren's FAMOUS MONSTERS magazine (issue 149) from back in 1978.

Shamelessly, the article itself also appeared in GALACTIC WARS COMIX which I posted here a while back.

      Hi Ed

      Good spot!

      Nope, I don't ever remember seeing a DUNE ANNUAL and a quick check of the book on British annuals doesn't list anything either.

      Although I was aware of the film, it didn't get me remotely excited at the time and it's only within the last few years that I finally got around to seeing it. I wasn't paying much attention to the (fairly extensive) merchandising that appeared to tie-in with the film but I'm fairly sure I would remember seeing the annual amongst the stacks in Martins or WH Smith.

      Maybe it was abandoned pre-publication and no one told whoever was compiling the advert?
