I don’t know all the answers but let’s not forget that Marvelman first appeared in Marvelman No.25.

It’s always good to hear how approachable these creators are. I once emailed Barry Windsor Smith on his Power comic pin ups from the late 60s and got a very friendly reply.

That’s a lovely page to own. John’s art is mesmerising.

Another Rebellion hardback has come in - Billy’s Boots Vol 1 with loads of Scorcher tales.

Wonderland No.1 (1961) from our very own Adam Eterno.

If you’re a fan of old Fleetway characters then do catch the latest Judge Dredd Megazine. Not only does it contain the wrap up to the Vigilant storyline but there’s a separate comic full of the first appearances of many old favourites such as the Leopard of Lime Street, Dr Sin, Death Wish and more ...

After years of waiting, Diana 199 with the first Steed & Peel Avengers. And now, years of waiting ahead of me as I wait for the comic to flatten out again, having been sent through the post in a tube.

It was just too “busy” wasn’t it. On more than occasion I would turn the page and immediately turn back to the previous page to understand what it was I was reading.

I’ve just won on eBay the Publisher’s file copy of the last issue of Terrific, complete with all the information on who was paid what.

Janus Stark Volume 2 just slipped through the letter box. Is anyone else picking up Treasury of British Comics publications?

The Leopard from Lime Street Vol.2 (hardback) has now leapt on to my collected editions shelf.

Jeff Hawke Books 1 & 2 published by Titan in the 1980s with gorgeous Brian Bolland artwork on the covers.

Garth Book 1 from Titan in the 1980s now sits alongside the already purchased Book 2 in my comic reading library.

Masters of British Art has arrived. Wow!

The Donald Duck title was in the same format as Vulcan, i.e. small and lots of colour (in this case throughout). Personally I liked it but that brought a hefty 10p price tag and too expensive for a weekly splash out.
