Tom Tully is one the most prolific writers ever to grace British comics. His diverse portfolio of work was produced over four decades. Born in Glasgow, Tully entered the industry in the sixties when he began working for Fleetway. One of his earliest strips, Heros the Spartan, ran in the original Eagle and was illustrated by the great Frank Bellamy. He also wrote Mytek the Mighty (Valiant & Vulcan) and The Steel Claw (Valiant & Vulcan) in the same decade. The seventies saw Tully work on a variety of significant stories including Adam Eterno (Thunder), Johnny Red (Battle), Harlem He-roes (2000 AD), The Leopard from Lime Street (Buster) and Roy of the Rovers (Tiger), the strip he worked on longer than any other writer.Francisco Solano López hailed from Argentina, but created many memorable and popular British comic book strips such as Kelly’s Eye (Knockout), Janus Stark (Smash!), Nipper (Score ‘n’ Roar), Pete’s Pocket Army (Buster) and Master of the Marsh (Smash!). He contributed art to Adam Eterno (Thunder) and many Picture Library stories for Fleetway (including a Battler Britton story for Thriller Picture Library). In Argentina he was known for Ernie Pike (with Hugo Pratt and José Muñoz), and most famously The Eternaut (written by Héctor Germán Oesterheld). He died in 2011.
1580, London. Adam Eterno was working as an assistant to the great alchemist Erasmus Hemlock who had just achieved his life's goal – creating the 'Elixir of Life'! Adam swallowed the potion, defying his masters orders. With his last breath, Erasmus placed a curse upon Adam, wishing him immortality. Unless Adam is struck over the head with a solid gold object, he is, "doomed to wander through the labyrinths of time...!"From the high seas of 1770 to the Western Front in 1916, follow Adam Eterno's earliest adventures, beautifully illustrated with black and white art by Solano Lopez (Janus Stark), Tom Kerr (Kelly's Eye) and Colin Page (Billy's Boots) and originally published in the pages of Thunder.
