The art on the Janus Stark story in the 1970 Smash Summer Special was absolutely stunning, but not by the usual artist.Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07224781868125924337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-25377147061356750952012-09-09T11:43:08.985+01:002012-09-09T11:43:08.985+01:00I was mostly disappointed in the summer specials a...I was mostly disappointed in the summer specials as the art was not always of the best quality imho (or maybe it was the fact that in many cases the regular artist didn't draw the special) but they always looked really cool and packed with strips , games and stories that we poured over whilst travelling on the way to some holiday destination.

I had some of the ones shown, in fact still have the "Fantastic" one. The end of the school year was when I remember them being available, just before the two weeks holiday (usually the last week in July/first week in August) to such sunny climes as Great Yarmouth, Skegness or Plymouth!Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04397737997079715639noreply@blogger.com
