Eagle Picture Library #2
"Murder in Space" delivers a crisp, pulpy sci-fi thriller from the pages of Eagle Picture Library #2 (1985), a 30p British comic that packs a punch with its bold visuals and tight storytelling. Written and illustrated by Brian Lewis—whose dynamic artwork brings the Z-4 crew’s desperate fight for survival to life—this issue follows Commander Cobb, Jet-Ace Logan, Plumduff Charteris, and Morgan as they uncover a sinister force in deep space: a sentient brain seeking an heir. The cover by Brian Lewis perfectly captures the tension, setting the stage for a high-stakes mission where every shadow could hide a threat.
