Artist Alan Brooks has emailed to tell me that issue #1 of Flying Saucers vs the Earth — which “came out on Wednesday, after delays” — has sold out already.
Well done, Alan!

This series really looks fantastic!! I really hope that the ‘War Eagles’ series does happen as well as the proposed film.
Thanks for the kind comment – and thanks Rob for your support too ! A gentleman and a scholar sir, is what you are ! Harryhausen does seem to be developing, with passion, the stories he has had sitting on his shelf for some time now. The Elementals is one such book that is a story coming out soon in comic format. These could be comics or storyboards ready to film. It depends on your outlook I guess. The Elementals has been around for some time too and bears some resemblance to War Eagles as it has pilots and battles all of its own.But with giant bats this time. Thats fine with me though !
You’re very welcome Alan. The “Elementals” sounds really great too. I’ll have to check it out. THANKS!!
If I can find it, I’ll put up some conceptual art of Harryhausen’s relating to “The Elementals”…. I’ve got it somewhere…
Avery, I just put up an article that includes the sketch for “The Elementals” I mentioned. It’s here:
