Comic Sketch Art artist Marc Laming and B7 Comics set to revive iconic British comic book space hero “Dan Dare” in a new series of graphic novels written by Alex de Campi via Kickstarter.

B7 Comics has teamed up with bestselling author and screenwriter Alex de Campi (Rogue Trooper: Ghost Patrol and Duncan Jones’ Madi: Once Upon A Time in the Future) and Marc Laming (Star Wars, James Bond, Eden, Endeavour) for a three-book reimagining of the classic British adventure strip Dan Dare, with the full approval of the rights holders The Dan Dare Corporation.

“A dying planet, a desperate mission – and a first contact that may spell the end of human life as we know it…” sets the scene for these all-new Dan Dare comic book adventures.

The Kickstarter campaign for Book One “First Contact” will officially launch on 1 March 2026.The script for Book One has already been written, and Marc is itching for take-off – and, in fact, has already drawn some concept art and begun working on the pages!

Dan Dare: First Contact is a 112-page, graphic novel which will be offered as an eBook, paperback, hardback and premium Kickstarter-exclusive hardback edition.

“Alex and I are huge fans of Dan Dare from Frank Hampson and Frank Bellamy’s original stories of the 50s and 60s through to 2000AD’s more anarchic take on the character in late 70s. We are both extremely excited to bring Colonel Dare to a new audience,” says Marc. “I think our tale has something for fans of the original Eagle stories and for lovers of modern sci fi action of the screen and books.”

Writer Alex de Campi adds: “It’s truly been an honour to be given the opportunity to bring Dan Dare to a whole new generation, making the story feel exciting and modern without losing any of the charm and wonder that has kept it a beloved classic for so long. Also, Marc is such a gifted artist (and a great guy!), I couldn’t ask for a better creative partner to bring this story to life.”
