Leap Into The Future
Any info on this strip, which was drawn by Gerry Wood and published in World Of Wonder? Was it a science fiction serial?
Re: Leap Into The Future
Steve Holland scanned the whole series for his Bear Alley blog. You should be able to see it here:

Re: Leap Into The Future
Thanks, Phil, that's the one. My school library had WOW, and the main reason I remember this is because I had no idea what "enzymes" were. Something like LSD, maybe? I'm actually surprised that time travel via drugs was still considered a suitable subject for juvenile fiction in 1970!
Re: Leap Into The Future
It's interesting that Daphne du Maurier's 1969 novel The House on the Strand also deals with the subject of time travel via mind altering drugs. I guess it must have been an idea that was 'in the air' at the time.
