The acclaimed Century 21 collections of classic Gerry Anderson comics return with Menace From Space, the fifth volume in the series, on 10 October. The new hardback book features 13 complete stories illustrated by artists such as Frank Bellamy, Mike Noble and Don Harley. Each page has been meticulously restored from the best archive materials, including original artwork that has not been seen for over 40 years.

This is the first volume in the series to be published by Signum Books. "I'm delighted the Century 21 books have found a new home at Signum," says Gerry Anderson, who has overseen this new presentation of material he originally published in the 1960s. "Chris Bentley and the team have maintained an amazing standard with their work, and I believe the new volume is the best yet."

"This is a project very close to our hearts," says Signum's Marcus Hearn, "and I hope this is reflected in the production values of Menace From Space. Chris Bentley, Mike Jones and Alistair McGown began work on the restoration many months ago. We've taken special care with everything from Lee Sullivan's cover illustration to the paper quality and the binding in an effort to create a real collector's item."

Century 21: Menace From Space is available for pre-order from Amazon and all good bookshops. A strictly limited number of copies will be signed by Gerry, and are now available for pre-order from the Signum Books website.
