Colin would have loved that story. As I was completing my Commando set, I only needed 2 issues that weren’t early ones but they were all I needed.

I’m a Marvel UK diehard fan but even I’d never heard of their 1982 comic Not the World Cup which includes an early Alan Moore story. Now purchased and on its way.

Some Dracula Lives from 1975 including Werewolf by Night meeting Moon Knight.

It didn’t really appeal to me at the time but I bought the set a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it.

I have three original 1947 newspapers reporting the wedding of The Queen and Prince Phillip but I won't be asking this much.
