Continuing with the covers of the 'new' Eagle, here's the second dozen that were available back in 1982. Comics for girls had been using photo-stories for years, but it was a novelty as far as comics for boys were concerned. It couldn't have gone down too well with readers in the long-run, as the weekly started featuring 100% illustrated strips after just over a year, but it was probably a good way of garnering attention at the time of the comic's launch.
There'd been a gap of around 13 years between the old and the new Eagle, which ended 24 years ago. Perhaps it's time for Mark III ? More covers before too long.
