BEANO images copyright D.C. THOMSON & Co., Ltd |
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.)

Well spotted on the cover inspiration.
ReplyDeleteAnd well spotted in spotting that it was well spotted, Baab.
ReplyDeleteWow, I've been aware of that Holiday Grab Bag cover for as long as I've been reading Marvel comics (I must have seen it advertised in the early issues of POTA even before I actually knew who the characters on the cover were) but I've never seen the back cover before !! And if the 2017 Beano annual is such a collector's item, Kid, then why did you wait so long to buy it ? It's been on sale in my local Tesco since October.
ReplyDeleteYou've never seen the back cover before, CJ? Your memory is malfunctioning, because I showed it in Favourite Comics Of The Past Part 33 - you even left several comments. And I didn't say that the Beano Annual 2017 is 'such' a collectors' item, I said it was 'sort of' - which at £1.99 is worth buying, but I wouldn't pay £7.99 for it.
ReplyDeleteOops...obviously my mind is going - well, it's to be expected at my advanced age. And do you prefer the Beano masthead with or without the "The" ? I prefer with.
ReplyDeleteI prefer it as it was, CJ, the change seems pointless - change for change's sake.
