The VC’s

(Fleetway Quality, 1990)
™ and ©1990 Fleetway Editions, Ltd.

The VC’s are an intergalactic fighting force, whose name has nothing at all to do with the struggle in Viet Nam. In this case, the “V” stands for “Vacuum” and the “C” is for “Cleaners.” The team feels that they have to clean up space, henceforth the vacuum cleaner nickname. None of the team members are human except for the newest member, Steve Smith, a raw recruit who comes straight from Earth. The other members of the team are made up of aliens with diverse backgrounds. At first the team does not accept their new member, but in time Smith gains their respect. The VC’s fight countless alien threats from all over the galaxy.

Fleetway/Quality is the company famous for reprinting most of the work that originally surfaced in the pages of England’s 2000 A.D. comic magazine, most notably Judge Dredd. The VC’s ran originally ran as a 32-part story in 2000 A.D. #140–175.
