Geoff Campion in TV Comic (1983)

After posting some of Geoff Campion's work here the other day it reminded me that although Geoff was usually associated with IPC comics, he did also contribute to Polystyle's TV Comic for a short while.

In TV Comic No.1656, cover dated 16th September 1983, the weekly began a new series called Tales of the Gold Monkey, based on the American TV show. (Which was basically a Raiders of the Lost Ark for the small screen.) Geoff Campion provided the cover for the debut issue, and the artwork for the early episodes of the strip. Here's Geoff's opening episode, and a nicely drawn spread it is too...

Tales of the Gold Monkey ended with the final issue of TV Comic in 1984, and the later episodes were drawn by Keith Page.
