In addition to being "wholesome", Eagle strove for graphical accuracy, sometimes having its artists create models of spaceships to use as artistic referents. For a large chunk of its life, artistic chores were tackled by the likes of Frank Hampson and Frank Bellamy.

While Dan Dare is indelibly associated with the publication, there were many other strips that appeared in the Eagle, like Luck of the Legion, The Adventures of Tintin, Waldorf & Cecil and Captain Pugwash.

Publication History
Eagle was initially published by Hulton Press. When they were taken over by Odhams in 1960, a new, merged company called Longacre Press was formed. In 1961, the Daily Mirror Group bought Odhams, who continued publishing Eagle until 1969.
