Dan Dare Sir Hubert Guest betrayed Dare to the Mekon and his quisling British Prime Minister, Gloria Monday (whose appearance and demeanour appear modelled on Margaret Thatcher).

In 1996, "The Planet" published its first and only issue.

In 2007–2008 Virgin Comics published a 7 issue Dan Dare mini-series written by Garth
