Badass! You can really see where the inspiration came from for 2000AD's 1970s Dan Dare. Clint's hair ROCKS!


CLINT EYE FOR THE SPACE GUY

Didn't he have anti-freeze for blood, or something crazy like that? Gotta be something like 27 years since a read that story...!

I've been a fan of films starring or directed by Clint Eastwood ever since I was just a ...

I think I've spotted a couple of mistakes, too.

If I remember correctly, and I might be wrong here, I think the Royal Navy maintains a presence on the Thames, or perhaps the estuary, specifically to knock down any kind of unexpected aerial incursions in and around London. Or did I dream that? Well ...

Are you in the UK? Did you see him on The One Show? Jeebuz...!
