Titan Comics Reveal Details For ‘Phoo Action: Silver Jubilee Super Deluxe Edition’

Back in March we helped announce Titan Comics’ plans to reprint the long out-of-print, cult classic comic book, Phoo Action, by Mat Wakeham and Jamie Hewlett, in both a Deluxe and Super Deluxe Edition. Today we learn more about the contents of the Super Deluxe Edition, with a limited print run of only 500 hardback copies.

“Phoo Action: Silver Jubilee Super Deluxe Edition not only includes the 464-page Deluxe Edition (out this December), but also showcases Wakeham and Hewlett’s creation at its most beautiful and lavish featuring a numbered tip-in sheet signed by Jamie Hewlett and Mat Wakeham, plus a cloth spine, silver page edging, foil and spot UV finishing, along with five new art prints, embroidered patches, all collected in a stunning clamshell case.

To celebrate the 25th anniversary since the creation of the PHOO ACTION universe, Phoo Action: Silver Jubilee follows the adventures of crime-fighting duo of Whitey Action and Terry Phoo battling side-by-side once again. Sixteen-year-old Kung-Fu orphan Whitey’s hangover is rudely interrupted and Phoo Action are forced to combat their long-time notorious foes, ‘The Freebies’, and the rest of the ridiculous mutants on to the filthy streets of Soho and are once again wreaking havoc.”

Journalist, broadcaster, and author, Miranda Sawyer provides a foreword with lost Hewlett & Wakeham comic pages included as well as an all-new prose story written by Wakeham and illustrated by Philip Bond (The Invisibles, Hellblazer, Geezer). Plus, “over 90 pages of unseen preparatory art, as well as creature, set, and costume design and a complete written history.”

“This Super Deluxe Edition is our heartfelt tribute to 25 years of Phoo Action—filled with exclusive art. memories and everything that makes the series special. We poured a lot of love into this and I hope it means as much to you as it does to us.” – Mat Wakeham
