Arrived yesterday at Castel Crivens, two items celebrating publisher Alan Class's 30 year career from 1959 to 1989, with Mr. Class still very much around at the ripe old age of 87. I was originally too tired (and lazy) to scan my own copies, so used images from the Gosh! Comics website when I first published this post, though I've since replaced them with my own items. (I didn't want you blaming me for the reflection of the camera flash on Creepy Worlds #250.)
They could be sold out by now, but it wouldn't hurt to try and obtain them if you were a reader of Alan Class mags back in the day. The 'Secrets Of The Unknown...' tome by Nick Neocleous has some very nice colour cover reproductions to prompt your memory of bygone days from your comics-reading youth, and also contains an interview with Mr. Class himself.
As for Creepy Worlds #250, it contains some nice 'public domain' strips, plus a couple of brand-new ones produced (I think) specially for this anniversary number. Definitely worth having, especially if you happen to own the preceding 249 issues (and even if you don't). Both items are autographed by Alan Class and Nick Neocleous, inside the book and on the back of the mag.
