What comic related items did you get for christmas

[Bethanys grandad]

Got in my stocking from Santa the new 2000AD Dan Dare book , the book of Gerry Anderson comic strips and a large book about DC Bronze Age comics

[wilsia]

The Broons, Oor Wullie, King Features 100 years of newspaper strips ( an enormous book) and the Vault book on the Thunderbirds story.

I'm going to read some of the Broons book later this evening

I have mentioned this already on another thread that I got a book on saucy seaside postcards put out by bamforth....I have been living in a hotel this past 3 days so my presents are as yet unopened...I look forwards to seeing this properly later on today......

A good Christmas - two gems:

Dan Dare - The 2000AD Years Book One.

The Trigan Empire - The Three Princes.

Great reading for Christmas and Boxing Day.

I got a set of four Peanuts comic books, The Beano Annual, The Dandy Annual, Dennis the Menace Annual 2008 and The Beano & Dandy Collection thing.

[Adam Eterno]

7 Valiant annuals from the 70s when i used to get one every year. The entire collection of Valiant on DVD.....all 700+ comics which will take AGES to get through and the book Action: The Story of a Violent Comic.

Very Happy

Found a few comic related goodies under the ol' Christmas tree:

Pandarve: the Worlds of Don Lawrence,
Beano annuals from 2003 (inc. rather scary inside cover artwork and a dodgy CGI Dennis & Gnasher strip) and 2016.
The 2000AD Future Shock DVD...

... and purchased a load of Summer and Holiday specials just before Xmas and kept wrapped until the 25th. All in immaculate condition aside from 2 with slightly rolled edges. Mostly comics I never read as a a kid (apart from Cor and Whoopee obviously - Couldn't be seen playing with Action Man AND reading Tammy!) so I'm enjoying pootling through these:
June & Pixie - '74, '75
June & School Friend - '77, '78
Tammy and Sandie - '74
Tammy - '76, '77, '78, '79
Jinty - '78
Tina - '76
Frankie Stein - '75
Cor! - '75, '76

Will Eisner's The Building.

Very nice! A friend of mine got me a red-and-black striped jumper as well, but it was too small so she said she'd be getting one made for me in the new year...
