Scarth A.D. 2195
Scarth A.D. 2195 is a British erotic science fiction comic strip created in 1969 [1] by writer Jo Addams and illustrator Luis Roca and originally published in British newspaper The Sun. It was also reprinted in The Menomonee Falls Gazette from #95 until it ceased publication.
The title appears to be a parody of Garth, which was featured in the Daily Mirror; there is no direct connection between the strips, given the rivalry between the two papers. After 1972, its title was changed to Scarth A.D. 2170.[2] Les Lilley is also credited with directing the storylines of Scarth.[3] In 1978 The Sun's comic page returned to erotic science fiction with Axa.
