StarLord was another great british sci-fi comic that first published in 1978. Once again it was another comic that only lasted 22 issues before being joined with 2000AD. I t did give us the classic stories Strontium Dog and Ro-Busters both of which would make their way into 2000AD and become classics in their own right. Anyway over to you to read,enjoy and then leave a comment or request,suggestions,abuse etc etc.thanks for reading!
