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. 38 No.2 SUMMER 2025

 

The 150th edition of EAGLE Times is out now. Featuring a cover by Graham Bleathman showing Dan Dare's spacecraft 'Anastasia' and several other craft flying over a future London and the back page with black and white studies of EAGLE characters by Keith Page, it celebrates the occasion in style. The contents include articles about 'Jack O' Lantern' and his creator George Beardmore, by Eric Summers; 'Blackbow the Cheyenne' by David Britton and 'Montgomery of Alamein' by myself. Reg Hoare's report on our  recent Gathering in Plymouth and my own speech about EAGLE and the radio from the Annual Dinner are also featured, along with the final part of the latest Archie Willoughby story 'The Case of the Elusive Elvis'. Copies can be obtained from Bob Corn at the address on the right.
