The fine folks over at Moorcock\u2019s Miscellany have reprinted my 1998 article “Michael Moorcock and the Comics of the Mutliverse”<\/a> from Michael Moorcock\u2019s Multiverse<\/span> #6.<\/p>\n

Moorcock then began working on a succession of comic magazines for Fleetway including Sexton Blake Library<\/span>, Kit Carson<\/span>, Robin Hood<\/span>, and Billy The Kid<\/span>, first on the annuals and then on the actual weeklies. The annuals were hardbound Christmas versions of the weeklies and monthlies.<\/p>\n

During this period, Moorcock also edited issues of Thriller Picture Library<\/span>, Cowboy Picture Library<\/span>, and others. By 1965 he had written or co-written issues of Karl the Viking<\/span>, Kit Carson<\/span>, Buck Jones<\/span>, Dogfight Dixon RFC<\/span> (which he helped to create), The Life Of Alexander<\/span>, Skid Solo<\/span>, Zip Nolan<\/span>, Highway Patrol<\/span>, and Bible Story Weekly<\/span>. Contrary to popular belief, Moorcock never wrote issues of Wrath of Gods<\/span>, Deathworld<\/span>, or The Trigon Empire<\/span>. By the end of 1965 he had all but stopped writing comics.<\/p>\n
