The following information has been taken from
diverse sources, but mostly comes from "Time Screen Magasine No. 21 Extra",
Spring 1995.
“Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons” had been the subject of many drawing artists, for a number of comic strips over the years. In the sixties, they had appeared in a weekly magazines, like “TV Century 21”, “Action 21”, “Countdown”, etc. and also in “TV 21 Annuals”, a couple of “Captain Scarlet Annuals” (1967, 1968), the “Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet Annual” (1969), and “Countdown Annuals” (See BOOKS & MAGASINES PAGE).
“Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons” had been the subject of many drawing artists, for a number of comic strips over the years. In the sixties, they had appeared in a weekly magazines, like “TV Century 21”, “Action 21”, “Countdown”, etc. and also in “TV 21 Annuals”, a couple of “Captain Scarlet Annuals” (1967, 1968), the “Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet Annual” (1969), and “Countdown Annuals” (See BOOKS & MAGASINES PAGE).
In 1988, “Action 21” was reprinted for a number of 10 issues… It was just too bad the series didn’t continue, so that a new generation, as well as the “old” one would see those marvellous drawings of “Captain Scarlet”, “Thunderbirds”, “Stingray” and all the others from artists such as Ron Embleton, Frank Bellamyand Mike Noble.
Two more Annuals of “Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons” were published in those years, reprinting some comic strips pages of the earlier annuals.
From 1993 to 1994, 14 issues of a new series of comic featuring “Captain Scarlet” were published, featuring reprints of the 60’s as well as new material. The series then merged with the “Thunderbirds” comic, along with the “Stingray” comic.
The following list contains all the issues of the magazines that, at some point or another, had carried a “Captain Scarlet” comic strip or of any related materials (“The Mysterons”, “The Angels”…). As each strip was generally part of an ongoing story, the title for the first episode (if and when available), has been indicated. Drawing artists (and in later years, plot writers) appears with the majority of these stories.
If any mistakes, errors and omissions, please contact me at scarlet1bishop@hotmail.com so I would make the proper corrections! I would also be grateful to any of you who might be able to provide me with some scans of those strip, by artists whose drawings don't appear on this page.
