Action Annual
IPC · 1977–1985 · 9 issues
About the series
A short-lived but visually striking annual from IPC, Action Annual (1977–1985) collected reprints and new material from the controversial and influential weekly Action comic, wrapped in distinctive painted covers. Spanning just nine issues, it captured the gritty, anti-authoritarian energy of its era, featuring the publisher's most notorious strips. Though the individual artists behind its painted style remain unattributed, the annual remains a key artifact of 1970s British comics, preserving the raw, boundary-pushing spirit that made Action a lightning rod for controversy.
