When I was a kid I was an avid reader of a series of Sci-fi comics called "Starburst" which were a similar format to the old Commando comics and yet noone I know seems to remember them in the slightest. :D One story in particular which I remember most clearly was where a space pilot crashed his ship on a planet where robots had taken over and, if I recall correctly, outlawed humans.
If anyone remembers these, or even better has scans, I would be a very happy man. :D

The only Starburst I recall was a Sci-Fi review/preview/info publication. It's recently had a rebirth as an online magazine.

I think that may be it! I don't recognize any of the issues in the link but it would certainly explain why noone remembers them if I got the name wrong every time I mentioned them :D
Thanks to you all! VERY much appreciated! :)

Oh and Sixtyten... I think you will find that 2000AD used to be called Opal Fruits... if I recall correctly, this comic I'm talking about was called Marathon, originally. :D
