A cascading cornucopia of cool comics, crazy cartoons, & classic collectables - plus other completely captivating & occasionally controversial contents. With nostalgic notions, sentimental sighings, wistful wonderings, remorseful ruminations, melancholy musings, rueful reflections, poignant ponderings, & yearnings for yesteryear. (And a few profound perplexities, puzzling paradoxes, & a bevy of big, beautiful, bedazzling, buxom Babes to round it all off.)

AGAIN - The THREE INVESTIGATORS...
![]() |
| Very apt - Funny Business is set against a comicbook convention |
Further to my recent post on the THREE INVESTIGATORS series of books, I thought you perhaps might like to see a cover gallery of some paperbacks I purchased several years back. The first three are from the later run of adventures, with the lads now around 17 or 18, and not the 13 or 14 year-olds they were originally.
You may not know that there was a similar series of six books back around 1977 called ROGER MOORE & THE CRIMEFIGHTERS, which was a sort of British equivalent to JUPITER JONES and his pals. I remember flicking through one in a shop called BELL, BOOK & CANDLE in '77/'78, but I've never actually read one, as far as I recall. (If I have, it couldn't have made much of an impression.)
Anyway, if you're a fan of the Three Investigators, now you know what to keep an eye out for in the charity shops.
