All these scans have as in all cases been taken directly from the Annual pages , in case any editing is of interest. This yearly tome starts off a slew of reprints with this , the 1977 Lion Annual! The book contains 2 strips taken directly from Thunder weekly. The first is a four-page story, "The Vikings",reprinted from Thunder Issue 17 ( 06 Feb 71 ) . And the second is an eight-page story,culled from the 2 - part strip -  "Pompeii" , reprinted from Thunder Issue 22 ( 06 Mar 71 to 13 Mar 71 ). This book was published in the winter of 1976 , when Valiant weekly itself had been sub - merged by Battle weekly , meaning that all 3 weeklies which Adam had appeared in were now gone!
