Captain Maroon 1

Two copies have surfaced of this extremely rare self-published comic from 1987, the first, and to date only, issue of Captain Maroon. Starring “the superhero with a difference”, the difference being that the nature of the Captain’s super power is never made clear.

In two fun tales, CM encounters crime lords the Black Scab and Mr Large. With a bonus single page joke strip, ‘Invasion of the Argobots’.

This was the first House of Harley release from before the House of Harley had a name, and a glimpse into our early days as an aspiring cartoonist. We were still at school when this was made and were learning quick.

That said, page 2 claims “The Best Comic You Will EVER Read!” and who are we to argue?

Published December 1987. A5, 24 pages.

£5 + postage. ADULTS ONLY.
