From the pages of the million sales-per-month Action comic (UK) comes the first collected edition of the man-eating great white shark, Hook Jaw! Eventually banned for its graphic violence after a media outcry, this forerunner of 2000 AD sees blood-n-guts and limbs-a-flying mix with environmental issues. This collection comprises the two pre- ban storylines: "The Oil Rig" -- where Hook Jaw unwittingly becomes an eco-terrorist, as he eats his way through the staff of a greed-obsessed oil magnet; "Paradise Island" -- at first glance, an idyllic island for the wealthy but at what cost to the indigenous shark-worshipers? By Pat Mills (2000AD, Charley's War, Slaine, Marshall Law etc etc) and Ken Armstrong (Flesh, Dan Dare and other uncredited stories), Ramon Sola (Action, 2000AD, Battle etc) and Felix Carrion. The horrific nature and young audience of Action weekly led to prohibition campaigns by the Evening Standard, the Sun and the BBC.
