Suspense Picture Library Holiday Special 1981

Post by davidandrewsimpson »

I've just bought what I understand to be the 1981 edition of Suspense Picture Library Holiday Special (cover price 45p; cover is a clos-up of a man holding a pistol). Does anybody know where the stories in it first appeared, and do the other four issues of Suspense Picture Library Holiday Special contain similar material?

Thanks in advance for any information.

I think most of the stories were reprinted from the 1969/70 title Action Picture Library. Artists in the 1981 Special include Enio, Segrelles and Kurt Caesar.

Thanks Phil. I'd forgotten all about Action Picture Library, not that I was much aware of it to start with.

I'm always happier when I know roughly where reprints came from.
