Antiriad - comic pages in wrong order

The 2-page spreads F and G need to be swapped round so that the comic reads in the correct order.

    There is an interesting detail in that comic. I wouldn't notice it myself but I've read about it on some retro forum.

    Notice that they talk about antirad (protecting from radiation) suits, not antiriad in the comic :)

    So the game's name is misspelling of an original idea.

    I just wonder - was it these savages from the comic or was it game publishers who misread the text? ;)

    It's the savages. A deliberate plot point.

    I doubt it was due to being in-house team, it was purposely done perhaps. in the US I saw it's known as "rad warrior" (but that's due to not being able to use the same name again, ik+ etc suffer the same name change)
