Adam treats its readers to a classic tale of copters and robbers.
We have a late stage issue of Australia’s Adam for you, published this month in 1977, which was just a year from the magazine’s shuttering after a four decade run. The cover art is by the usual unidentified house artisan, illustrating Alex Tait’s alpine wilderness adventure “The Cold Season.” Tait’s tale ends with a funny little James Bond-style quip: the hero shoots the helicopter, scores a lucky hit, and the craft blows to pieces. Next line, uttered by a red-hooded femme named Shay: “Explosive character he turned out to be.” Thirty-nine pages of fact, fiction and humor, inclduing a nice shot of model Nicki Debuse in panel four, all below.
