The Super Deluxe Edition adds even more, with a signed tip-in sheet, cloth spine, silver gilded page edging, foil and spot UV finishing, five art prints, and three embroidered patches, all housed in a stunning clamshell case.
These expensive editions, intended only for collectors, provide an immersive experience and celebrate Phoo Action’s legacy.
Phoo Action
The superstar crime-fighting duo of Terry Phoo and Whitey Action burst onto the scene in ‘Get the Freebies’, a serialised comic strip created by Jamie Hewlett which ran for a year in British style and pop culture magazine The Face in 1996. The strip detailed the exploits of the anarchist duo as they battled side-by-side to combat their notorious foes, ‘The Freebies’ – a group of outrageous mutants wreaking havoc in the streets of London. With Mat Wakeham on board, the rebellious comic then became the cult sensation PHOO ACTION, which manifested into a 2008 BBC TV pilot starring Eddie Shin (Westworld) Jamie Winston (Kidulthood), and the late Carl Weathers (Rocky, Predator, The Mandalorian) directed by Euros Lyn (Black Mirror, Broadchurch, Heartstopper).
The Super Deluxe Edition Hardcover of Phoo Action is available in the UK from Titan’s sister company, Forbidden Planet, and in the US, the Deluxe Edition from Barnes & Noble.
