Where did “No Place Like Home” appear?

It appeared in Bunty #1721 (05 January 1991) – #1731 (16 March 1991)

Nice list. The Suzy story that you are thinking of is "In Sheena's Shadow" (the sister that died was called Sheena not Sheila) it appeared #182 (1 March 1986) – #192 (10 May 1986) The Farmers from "No Place Like Home" are more parents whose priorities are all wrong, they put money and snobbery befor...

I can think of a couple for each of those categories mentioned. Overbearing Parents No Friends for Fran (Suzy) - where a mother is so overprotective of her daughter she doesn't allow her to leave the house in case she gets ill. Then she nearly kills them when she burns some "contaminated" clothes an...

The Rebellion treasury line has a sale on right now, lot of stuff going at half price, so good time to check them out, if there are books you were thinking of buying. Some are selling for as little as £5.50. https://treasuryofbritishcomics.com/catalogue I've already got a number of these books, but ...

As we're getting closer to release some new information about the special is coming out. That girl with the football is "Rocky of the Rovers" (Roy of the Rovers' sister). Other established characters appearing are Bella at the Bar, Justine and Maisie's Magic Eye and it seems the other stories in the...

Thanks for putting that together Goof.

There's a list of his work on Misty here: https://www.juliaround.com/misty You can sort the columns by artist. I believe he's also the artist for "The Girl with the Black Umbrella" which appeared in Mandy 1972 http://girlscomicsofyesterday.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/girl-with-black-umbrella.jpg

Lizzie Boyle is the editor on this special. She wrote the "Best Friends Forever" strip in the last Misty/Scream special and "Gums" in the recent Cor!!Buster special, which was my favourite strip in that special, so think she'll do a good job on Tammy & Jinty. Not sure if she's writing any stories or...

My Cor!!Buster Special arrived early, so that was a treat for the weekend.

Derek couldn't you sort of cheat i.e. Jane model miss 108 ( for example or whatever number or system you use ) 108 A 108 B 108 C etc but i have no idea how you will lay it out etc but i think that's what i would do so each serial although the same character etc still gets 3 lines and i would do tha...

It's looking good. No surprise Bella is there, especially considering they've already released reprints. I expect a sci-fi story perhaps a sequel to something they've already printed, such a return to the Land of No Tears or maybe they'll just do a new Sci-fi story. I expect some of the stories will...

These aren't issues I own instead it is information I got from a visit to national library, so it is possible I noted it down wrong. What I noted: 108 "They're My Mum and Dad!" Mary in the Middle Moira and the Moonflowers Patti the Prefect Posh Penelope Schoolgirl with a Secret Slave to her Sister T...

Pat Mills recently wrote some pieces on girls comics on his blog, worth a read for those interested. The second part discusses options for pitching a girls comics today https://www.millsverse.com/girlscomics2/ An interesting section on photo strips came up and I don't think I'd seen a positive defen...

This is exciting! I think I'll get a bundle, there are 4 comics I would be interested in getting; Tammy & Jinty, 13th Floor, Vigilant and Cor! Buster, so may as well get the two extra 2000AD issues for similar price. I really like all this new material coming out yearly along with the reprints, look...

Thank you for trying, Goof. Frankly, I am beginning to doubt the story does exist. I can’t see any girls’ title running anything like that in the time period mentioned. If it had appeared, surely someone would have remembered it? It’s so distinctive. I think we've done as much as we can, and it may...
