WELCOME

Welcome to the web home of THE EAGLE SOCIETY.

THE EAGLE SOCIETY is dedicated to the memory of EAGLE - Britain's National Picture Strip Weekly - the leading Boy's magazine of the 1950s and 1960s. We publish an A4, quarterly journal - the Eagle Times.

This weblog has been created to provide an additional, more immediate, forum for news and commentary about the society and EAGLE-related issues. Want to know more? See First Post and Eagle - How it began.

EAGLE TIMES Vol.35 No.3


 The Autumn issue of EAGLE Times is out now. Articles cover Dan Dare's lesser known rivals, girls in EAGLE, Luck of the Legion, the Canadian Pacific Railway and a report on our 2022 Gathering in Greenwich. There are also tributes to our late member, Adrian Perkins, who was greatly involved in Dan Dare fandom for over forty years, including being a key member of the EAGLE Times editorial team. There are two instalments of In and Out of the EAGLE, about the artist Fortunino Matania and the radio hero Dick Barton. A Letters' Page, the first episode of a new Sergeant Archie Berkeley-Willoughby adventure and the text of Steve Winders' talk at the Society's Gathering complete the issue.

Dear Jim,
I would like to thank you once again for the effort you put into researching and publishing interesting articles and snippets related to the times of EAGLE (original and modern). I found the Gotch and Gordon of particular interest.
Best regards
David Britton
