Description

Eagle front cover to the short 12-episode DAN DARE story, "The Ship That Lived" (episode 10, 4th April 1958). The story so far . . . "On the Lava Plain near the Flame-belt which girdles Venus, a desparate effort is being made to save Dan Dare's famous old spaceship, Anastasia, from the dread Silicon Mass which is like a fluid glass mountain. The Mass moves about on the hot quick-sands, devouring any known substance which comes near it. Dan and his friends have succeeded in jerking 'Old Annie' free with veteo-cranes, huge jet-lifters brought from Mekonta. As the cranes move towards firm ground, the Silicon Mass surges up like a living monster cheated of its prey . . .
