BABE Of The DAY - HELEN SLATER...

What an absolutely super girl.

That's really all I can say, as I'm far

too gob-smacked by how stunning

she is.  Schwiiinnnggg!!!

The COMPLETE FANTASTIC FOUR COVER & IMAGE GALLERY - PART THREE...

Time once again for a look back into yesteryear - 1977 in this particular instance, as we pore over a plethora of covers and pages from The COMPLETE FANTASTIC FOUR, a MARVEL U.K. weekly mag which we Brits had all to ourselves.  Featuring near-contemporary FF adventures and classic tales from the cosmic quartet's early days, plus pin-ups and puzzles when space allowed, this was an absolute belter of a title which deserved to survive for longer than it did.  At least I can console myself with having a full set, some of which I now generously share with you here.

Part Four coming soon!  Don't forget to remember to return.

  

AM I THAT EASY TO FORGET?

Here's JIM REEVES - demonstrating just

why he'll always be remembered by lovers of

good music everywhere.

PART TWO Of ADAM WARLOCK COVER & IMAGE GALLERY...

So here we are with some more lovely JIM STARLIN covers and images from WARLOCK, published in the mid-'70s.  The cover from #11 is a particular favourite of mine, summoning forth memories of a summer afternoon and the murmur of my parents' and their visiting friends' happy chatter emanating from the living-room, as I absorbed myself in my comics, upstairs.  I always liked Starlin's art, having first seen it on covers of the U.K. weekly comic The MIGHTY WORLD Of MARVEL in '72, usually inked by JOE SINNOTT, and capturing some of the essence of mid-'60s JACK KIRBY.

Feel entirely free to relate your own reminiscences of these mags in the comments section.  Go on - it's good to share.
