Arena HQ are HUGE fans of The Phoenix Comicpacked to bursting with comedy capers, imaginary worlds, book extracts, competitions, puzzles and more and this month we were delighted to see a familiar face given a prime spot in this fabulous comic. For 6 weeks lucky readers can exclusively collect the components for a gigantic King Coo treehouse poster inspired by Adam Stower’s King Coo adventures.

The poster features contraptions, cross sections and lots of our favourite characters, the only challenge will be finding a big enough wall space to display this whopping poster. We hope it inspires young inventors and adventurers to design their own fantastical tree houses! Here’s a sneak peek at the first part.
