The Trigan Empire

 

For those unfamiliar with the Trigan Empire (see Rob's comments on my last post) this was originally a comic strip series starting in the late 60s. There have also been various book/graphic novel versions, last one seems to have been in about 2020. This is my 1978 copy of the original hard back graphic novel.

As for 'Shades of the Trigan Empire' comment itself, yes, quite heavily influenced by the Roman Empire, except it was set on an alien planet in the distant past and the Trigans themselves were 12 foot tall!

  1. My goodness that's a real blast form the past, I used to love "Look and Learn" when I was a youngster, first time I saw proper wargame figures as opposed to Airfix figures was in that magazine as well. Happy memories!!

  2. Looked up Trigan Empire after writing the above - seems the graphic novel side is still going on today. Possibly some things there for my Christmas list list...
