Professor Beaker

Stepping out of the Silver Age pages of TV Century 21, Professor Beaker made his debut in just the second issue of that beloved British comics institution back in 1965, brought to life by the distinctive hand of artist Paul Trevillion. A fixture of one of the most exciting anthology titles of the era — a publication that crackled with the energy of space-age optimism and pop-culture adventure — Beaker carved out a place across 28 catalogued appearances alongside a remarkable roster including Steve Zodiac, Lady Penelope Creighton-Ward, and Parker. For collectors with a soft spot for that golden window of British comics history, when City Magazines and Century 21 Publications were doing something genuinely unique on the newsstand, Professor Beaker is a charming piece of the puzzle well worth tracking down.
