When I was a child my grandmother use to send me Look and Learn magazine from England. The center of the magazine had a two page color comic serial called The Trigan Empire, by Don Lawrence. I still love it and have many of them in book form now.

It is about the leaders of a Roman-like empire with swords and also modern technology on another planet. A must read!
