The Future Was Then exhibition at The Cartoon Museum

An exhibition of over 80 pages of original comic art that tell stories about the future of the human race from 1990 to 4000 AD.

This new exhibition at The Carton Museum, The Future Was Then, includes original work from iconic futuristic worlds such as Tank Girl, Judge Dredd, Black Mirror, Buck Rogers and Thunderbirds, and original artwork by legendary artists such as Jamie Hewlett, Frank Bellamy and Sydney Jordan. Science fiction and dystopian comics give us possible visions of Earth’s future, imagining what may be in store for humanity. Will hope triumph, with space rangers taking to the cosmos to explore new worlds? Or will fear set in, with futuristic authoritarian regimes taking hold?

What did comic creators in the past think the future would look like?

Science fiction is a cornerstone genre of comics. The limitless budget offered by a blank page allows artists to create incredible, detailed worlds before our eyes.

Over the past hundred years artists have conjured visions of future police states, intergalactic travel, everyday cybernetic technology, humans leaving Earth and even – gasp – humans using computers on a daily basis. Many creators are influenced by the world around them as they create, leaving imprints of their modern-day in their future worlds. We will explore this in the exhibition through never-before-displayed items from Phoo Action by Jamie Hewlett & Mat Wakeham – a vision of 2004 rooted in the mid-nineties, and a precursor to Hewlett’s later work on Gorillaz.

Have any predictions of the future been right?

Creators have explored ideas and visions of the future for over a hundred years in art and comics and have often been influenced by the events that they are living through at the time. Sometimes you can see how this changes an artist’s ideas in real time – for instance, as probes sent out across the solar system discovered our closest neighbours were uninhabited, artists moved away from fantastical space beasts living on Mars towards uninhabited planets being colonised, or fantastical travel in other universes.

Occasionally visions of the future come true. More often they don’t! Either way, comics give us a way to consider threats and opportunities for the human race, and engage with ideas about our own future.

The Future Was Then opens this Saturday, 4th

Thunderbirds 60 Years at Slough Museum

Third great FREE Thunderbirds event opens 4th October

Following hot on the heels of their successful Thunderbirds Memories Weekend in 2024 and The Art Of Thunderbirds earlier this year, Slough Museum is staging its third free event for Thunderbirds fans.

Masterminded by Fanderson member Sam Denham, who has again worked with the staff and volunteers at the museum in the heart of the Slough Trading Estate, where Thunderbirds was produced. The Thunderbirds 60 Years exhibition will celebrate the series by looking at the production and design, models and puppets, and will take a peek behind the scenes. It opens on 4th/5th October (10:00-16:00 both days), then every Friday 11:00-1600 and Saturday 10:00-14:00 until 20th December 2025.

Full details are on the event flyer, here.

Slough Museum Trust was founded in 1982 by a group of local people who wanted to create a museum to share knowledge about local and general history, topography and archaeology of Slough and surrounding districts. Their mission today is to build a sense of pride in Slough. They develop imaginative and inclusive projects and displays and encourage people to share their stories and knowledge of Slough as a place of pioneers and innovators. It is the only organisation in Slough that has a remit to collect, conserve and communicate the town’s heritage. They explore and celebrate Slough’s past, present and future.

[UPDATED] Merchandise mailings to USA (World zone 3) restarted

UPDATED 21/10/25

We are now able to resume the mailing of merchandise orders to the USA (postage zone World 3). Prices have been adjusted to reflect the additional Postal Delivery Duties Paid (PDDP) service now in place.

The Post Office recommends that orders are sent using the International Tracked/Signed option, so please add this to your basket before checkout.

We will not be able to claim compensation for any orders mailed not using this option that are not delivered, and so will not be able to replace any lost items.


UPDATED 10/9/25

We have had to suspend orders of our merchandise to the USA (postage option W3). As Royal Mail get to grips with the realities of posting items to the USA, they are having to frequently change the processes and prices they are charging. Therefore, until the matter settles down, we are suspended all postage option W3 orders.

Membership renewals are NOT AFFECTED, as we believe the situation will have stabilised by the time of our winter mailing.


World 3 price option now live for members in the USA

On 30th July 2025, the United States government announced an Executive Order which outlined significant changes to the customs requirements and processes for goods being imported into the USA from 29th August 2025. You can read more here.

A key element is the removal of duty-free for low value items. Previously, items valued at less than $800 could enter the USA without having to pay customs duties. Now, these import tariffs (duties) must be paid on top of the postage you already pay.

We had already planned to introduce a ‘World 3’ price structure for members in the USA from our winter mailing, but have no option than to bring this forward, to take into account this unforeseen new duty. With over 400 items in our online catalogue, it will take a little time for us to introduce World 3 to all products, so please bear with us.

With immediate effect, members in the USA must choose the W3 (World 3) option (where available) when ordering from us.
