''Revolver'' is the title of a British comic book magazine which was a spin-off from ''2000AD''. It lasted for seven regular issues and two specials, and was published between July 1990 to January 1991. ==History== ''Revolver'' was a relatively short lived comic published in the UK at the turn of the 1990s. It was notable for its diverse content reflecting the explosion of the music scene at the time. A wide range of graphic styles and contributors ranging from a surreal inside-the-mind-of Jimi Hendrix storyline (Purple Days), a psychedelic superhero in the form of Peter Milligan and Brendan McCarthy's ''Rogan Gosh'', distorted caricatures in ''Pinhead Nation'', plus ''Happenstance and Kismet'', Paul Honeyford's ''Fighting Figurines'', student-house antics in ''Dire Streets'', as well as the resurrection of Dan Dare, this time in a story called simply ''Dare''. In ''Dare'', writer Grant Morrison gave a new interpretation to the original Eagle character in a political story setting Dan Dare against a thinly veiled caricature of the Thatcher government. ''Revolver'' attempted to take advantage of the 1960s revival which was sweeping British culture in the early 1990s, including taking its name from The Beatles album of the same name. It gained a small following but not enough for it to last beyond its seventh issue. After its cancellation ''Dare'' was completed in the pages of ''Crisis'', and ''Rogan Gosh'' was compiled into a collected edition in 1994 by the Vertigo imprint of DC Comics. Two Revolver Specials were also published, a Revolver Horror Special (including some material by Neil Gaiman and Mark Buckingham) around Halloween 1990 and a Revolver Romance Special in March 1991, two months after the cancellation of Revolver itself. 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「Revolver (comics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
