Eventually banned for its graphic violence after a media outcry,
this forerunner of 2000 AD sees blood-n-guts and limbs-a-flying
mix with environmental issues. This collection comprises the two
pre- ban storylines: "The Oil Rig" and "Paradise Island".

Pat Mills (2000AD, Charley's War, Slaine, Marshall Law etc etc)
and Ken Armstrong (Flesh, Dan Dare and other uncredited
stories), Ramon Sola (Action, 2000AD, Battle etc) and Felix
Carrion. The horrific nature and young audience of Action weekly
led to prohibition campaigns by the Evening Standard, the Sun
and the BBC.
The Living Dead have
