Bloodfang
Bloodfang is a British comic character, appearing in strips published by IPC Magazines. The character featured in British comic stories published in the weekly anthology Eagle from 9 June 1984 to 30 March 1985, written by John Wagner and Alan Grant and drawn by Jim Baikie, Carlos Cruz-Diez and Vanyo. The story followed the eponymous tyrannosaurus rex, initially in prehistoric times and then later in the year 2150. Creation "Bloodfang" was one of many stories submitted to the revived Eagle by writing duo John Wagner and Alan Grant. The pair were such prolific contributors to IPC's output that managing editor John Sanders insisted they use pseudonyms to mask their level of contribution; Grant would later recall the pair enjoyed coming up with the pen-names. For "Bloodfang" the pair chose to be credited as 'F. Martin Candor'; Martin was a shopkeeper and Candor a mechanic, both known (and disliked) by Grant, with the 'F' being an obscene dismissal of the pair. The first 12-part storyline, published 9 June to 25 August 1984, was illustrated by Jim Baikie, who had recently worked with Alan Moore on "Skizz" in IPC's 2000 AD.
