BEWITCHED, BOTHERED & BEWILDERED...



Here's 'The Velvet Fog', MEL TORME,
to soothe you into slumber at the end of the day,
with a smooth little song to unwind to.  Ready?
Then close your eyes and just relax.

BABE Of The DAY - 'INDIANA JANE' (AGAIN)...



And she's even got her own whip!
Jane, I've been a very naughty boy so
 what do you intend to do about it?

SUPERMAN'S WHO'S WHO...

SUPERMAN'S WHO'S WHO was a four parter about The LEGION Of SUPER-HEROES, which ran in SUPER DC #s 4, 5, 7 & 8 sometime in 1970-'71 (Scottish edition).  It was a rather dull text feature in that it had no visual accompaniment, being part of the editor's page - DIRECT CURRENTS (as in the U.S. DC mags), and was hosted by a fictional seafaring character called The SKIPPER (in reality MICK ANGLO).  What on earth had a sea captain to do with the world of DC Comics you might wonder?

Well, the ocean has currents, so there's a bit of a connection I suppose, strained and uninspired though it may be.  Anglo had done the same thing before with TV TORNADO, where the 'editor' was also a sea captain, this time called ED STORM.  (Tornado, Storm - geddit?)

So, by special request, here are all four parts on their pages to help Dougie relive his childhood.
