''Axa'' was the title of a newspaper comic strip featuring the eponymous lead character, which was published in British daily tabloid ''The Sun'' from 1978 to 1986. It was written by Donne Avenell and drawn by Romero. ==Publication history== Commissioned by ''The Sun'' in 1978, the series was designed as a daily three-panel adventure strip. ''The Sun'' abruptly cancelled the strip midway through a story in 1986.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Donne Avenell )〕 Romero created 2238 strips in black/white before the comic was cancelled. The last strip published in ''The Sun'' was number 2234. It was published on November 16, 1985 (according to the Ken Pierce re-production of the Axa comic in book #9). Romero also produced a long story in full color which was published in the Spanish magazine Creepy #52-59 in 1983-1984. Romero returned to draw his previous series, ''Modesty Blaise'', but also took ''Axa'' to the American company Eclipse Comics, who published a two issue series of new adventures, though this time with much less nudity and Chuck Dixon as writer. Another comic book version of ''Axa'' was later produced for the Swedish comic magazine ''Magnum''. All the strips from ''The Sun'' have been reprinted in trade paperback format by Ken Pierce Books. In January 2011, a mobile phone game was released based on the Axa character.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Axa Mobile Phone Game )〕 The game targets mainly Nokia phones, but is written in Java and is therefore expandable to other platforms. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Axa (comics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
