Operatie Spacefighter (Operation Spacefighter) was the seventh in the series of Biggles comic strips in the Flemish/Dutch language by the Belgian company "Studio Vandersteen". The comic strip probably first appeared in the daily newspaper De Standaard and was later collected into an album released on 1 March 1967.
Spacefighter was probably written and drawn by Karel Verschuere although only Vandersteen is credited and never the individual artists.
Synopsis[]
This is an original story where Biggles investigates the mysterious crashes of several prototypes of an advanced jet fighter. There is however a preambular plot which has the same story elements as found in Biggles Lays a Ghost.
