What Ian Kennedy strip was it? as everyone is probably aware I'm not to hot on what artists drew what, But I'm learning thanks to everyone on this site.

Stryker is the one with Ian Kennedy art. The Black Crow looks like Eric Bradbury art, but I could be wrong. Paco is the one that is really annoying me as I should recognise the style, but I just can't put a name to the style. Arrgghh!

And Soldier Sharp is Joe Colquhuon and One Eyed Jack is some early John Cooper art.

Hi Col, just for your reference 'Stryker' only ran in Valiant's last nine issues 21/8/76-
16/10/76. So not too much to collect.

And I have just realised why I recognise the Paco art as it is the same guy that did the majority of the Big Willi story as featured in Warlord! Names please!

And that will so stop me from trying to collect the full run! NOT! I promised myself that I would stop collecting Victor after the True War Stories stopped and we all know how well that went!

I was only going to collect From Thunder until the last Lion & Thunder, But I now have nearly all of the Valiant & Lions from 1974 and the whole of 1975 Valiant & Lions, so I'm going to stop when I have all the Valiants now until it merged with Battle, trouble is I've picked up some Battles.

Paco was drawn by Alberto Salinas and the Black Crow is by Eric Bradbury.

...And of course you also need to collect Lion back to 1965 in order to get Ian Kennedy's work on The Silver Colt and Paddy Payne - at least you do now I've told you about them!

Are you a fan of Danny Doom? Surely Eric Bradbury at his most creepy and Gothic!

Phil, you're so full of...helpful advice! And that's not even counting the War Picture Libraries or the New Eagle!

And then there's his work for the New Hotspur and the Thomson boy's story papers and Bunty and Judy etc.

At least the DCT Boys Papers are on my hit list. Just trying to concentrate on Victor and Warlord at the moment, but it doesn't always work that way!

BTW, did anyone else notice that the week that Valiant finished is the same week that the old style Action hit the shelves for the last time before being withdrawn?

Yes Raven I Love Danny Doom, Specially when he appeared in ALBION as well.

I have a few Pre Thunder Lions, I would love them all from the 1960's and Valiants of course, I will probably carry on collecting no matter what, but I will be able to rest in peace when I have all of Lion & Thunders/ Buster & Jets/Knockouts/Wizards up to the end of 1974, and I'm close to getting them.Then I will go from there.
