The Stuff Of Life : What’s In A Nucleus?

Can anyone identify this graphic book?

I'm trying to find a book I read when I was around 10-12, so 26-28 years ago. It was a great hardback graphic novel type book. The starting point was that a civilization was discovered when people where giants. I can only remember snippits, they have a history of people or strangers. I remember the space age style is crossed with a gladitorial taste. It's been bugging me for ages. It is not much to go on, but makes it ring any bells?

I at 34 and when I was a child my father used to read such things. around 5 years ago I looked through a copy of my children Wheres Wally book, and I got a bit of a memory flashback of something that resembles your questions. he used to read the sort of warlord, commando, the eagle and the book of dan dare, and other, and there will sometimes be stories as the Dandy, Beano, etc.
