History[]
This version of Dan Dare is the title character of the Titan Comics series. He was first seen leading a rebellion against the Mekon, who had been elected President of Earth after brainwashing much of the population. With the aid of Digby, Hank Hogan and Professor Jocelyn Peabody, Dare overthrew the Mekon and had him locked up in a specially constructed prison on the Moon. He was then forced to confront the ugly truth that many of those who had voted the monster into power had not, in fact, been brainwashed, but had been attracted by the Mekon's draconian policies regarding minorities.
Five years after the Mekon's overthrow, Earth had seemingly entered a new golden age of peace and prosperity. Feeling useless when no new threat arose to replace the Mekon, who had seemingly reformed and taken up gardening in prison, a disillusioned and frustrated Dare prayed for a new mission to give his life meaning again... but would soon regret it.
