This is the first time Royal Mail has used a graphic-novel style of illustration for its stamps.
The stamps were designed by comic-book artist and writer John Higgins, who has contributed to the likes of Watchmen,Judge Dredd and2000 AD.The Great Fire of London broke out in a bakery in Pudding Lane on Sept. 2, 1666 and lasted until Sept. 5.
The fire devastated 13,200 houses and it's believed to have destroyed the homes of 70,000 of London's 80,000 residents. While the exact death toll is unknown, it was believed to have been small: only six deaths were recorded.
“It is an honour to illustrate these stamps and to commemorate this moment in history 350 years on," Higgins said in a statement sent to Mashable.
"Capturing the story of the Great Fire of London in just six special stamps was a wonderful challenge. I am thrilled to have been chosen to bring the graphic-novel style to Royal Mail’s Special Stamps for the first time."
