Dan Dare Despite a fairly small circulation (it is available only via mail order, through its own Web site or in a select few comic shops), "Spaceship Away" continues to appear three times a year. In 2017 a four-issue mini-series by Peter Milligan and Alberto Foche was announced by Titan Comics. "The New Adventures of Dan Dare, Pilot of the Future" aired five times a week on Radio Luxembourg for five years from 2 July 1951. Dan's voice was Noel Johnson, who also played Dick Barton on BBC radio. Each episode started with the command "Spaceships Away!". The 15-minute show was sponsored
Dan Dare to play Dare respectively. In 1991 a short pilot starring Bathurst as Dare, and Geoffrey Hughes as Digby was made. Parts of it were broadcast in an ITV documentary, "Future Perfect". In 2010, Variety announced that Warner Bros. will produce a Dan Dare movie starring Sam Worthington in the title role. During the 1980s Dan Dare starred in three computer games for the Commodore 64/128, ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC and Atari computers. The first was a different game on each system; the second and third were shoot'em-ups. All three were based on the 1950s strip rather than the contemporary comics.
