Perry #98 is a classic science fiction comic from Moewig publishing house, based on the successful novel series Perry Rhodan. The comic is in good condition.

The comic series Perry was published by Moewig between 1968 and 1975, running to a total of 129 issues. This science fiction comic was the publisher's comic adaptation and, after Perry Rhodan im Bild (1967-1968), the second attempt to transfer the famous novel series into the comic medium. The series had the casual and reassuring subtitle Our Man in Space and soon developed into a flashy, colourful pop-art comic that appealed more to young adults than to children. The artwork was created by the Italian graphic studio Giolitti, and most of the drawings were simple copies from a wide variety of American comic books of that era. Panels from Marvel Comics in particular were shamelessly copied, above all those by John Buscema, whose drawings were repeatedly used as templates. Nevertheless, the series Perry has its own very special charm, especially because it is a typical product of its time and, as such, still comes across today as lovingly nostalgic. Most of the cover images were created by Moewig's in-house artist Johnny Bruck (1921-1995), who also shaped the visual style of the source material - the novel series Perry Rhodan. It was apparently important to the publisher, for sales strategy reasons, to maintain at least a visual unity at newsstands.
