+ 34 - 26 | § Fantastic Adventures of Adam Ant!

And, while on the subject of Adam Ant (see my previous post on Adam's videos), I was delighted to discover another rare Adam treasure on the Web. A cartoon adventure story from Tops comic of 16th January 1982. You can read six big, wonderful colour pages on the site of the Ant Liberation Front. Go to Episode One and Episode Two. Truly wonderful stuff!

+ 26 - 33 | § Adam Ant Rides Again

They really don't make videos like that anymore. Two ugly sisters, a stuffed pussy, Marco playing a harp and the very fabulous Diana Dors as the Fairy Godmother! Yes, this could only be Adam and the Ants' Prince Charming (well, as the man says, "ridicule is nothing to be scared of.")


The Prince Charming vid includes Adam as highwayman (again)

I'd forgotten just how wonderful those videos were until I chanced upon a whole collection of them on the vid-sharing site, You Tube. In addition to Prince Charming, there's Vive Le Rock, Strip (blush) Stand and Deliver, Dog Eat Dog, Ant Music and lots more fab stuff besides.

Watch - and tremble with delight...
