KID'S KLASSIC CHRISTMAS KOMIC KOVERS - FANTASTIC #46...

It's still within the Festive period, so here's the cover of the Christmas issue of one of the all-time great comics of yesteryear - FANTASTIC!  It was just over halfway through its short lifespan at this point, but readers weren't aware of that at the time.  In fact, it's unlikely that publishers ODHAMS PRESS knew either.

And look at the pic below: MARVEL, DC, and Odhams characters all on the one page.  Such a thing probably couldn't happen today, so savour this classic moment from 1967.

    You needed the money? Never mind, JP - at least you have all the front and back covers again, via this blog.

      I would put money that nobody appreciated all those posts more than I did!?'

    I'm sure the rubber will come in useful for something.
