Brett Blade

Brett Blade made their debut in the pages of Knockout #6 in October 1962, stepping onto the Silver Age British comics scene courtesy of the talented Francisco Solano López. Published by IPC, Brett carved out a niche in the lively anthology tradition of UK weeklies, sharing ink with a wonderfully named rogues' gallery and heroic cast that includes Hawk Hunter, Moll Moonlight, and the gloriously titled Captain Hercules Hurricane. With appearances across both Knockout and Valiant, Brett Blade is a genuine artifact of a golden era in British comics history — the kind of character that rewards the curious collector willing to dig into the rich, underappreciated world beyond the American mainstream.
