Just to see one image from the original artwork proves beyond any doubt that Ron Just to see one image from the original artwork proves beyond any doubt that Ron Embleton's Wulf the Briton strip was in a league of it's own. When his art appeared in late 1950s a succession of truly awesome Wulf covers had eclipsed even the best output of the Hampson studio. Never had artwork of this caliber been seen in a UK comic and for comic creatives such as Frank Bellamy, Don Lawrence, Mike Noble and John Burns, Embleton had yet again raised the bar. Unbelievable that this strip has fallen out of the collective comic consciousness for so long.
