Presumably you kept your original copies? I'm sure the Madeleine Smith issue didn't hurt the sales figures ; many a teenage lad had a crush on her on those days.baggseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01126205345158158957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5747365665213229728.post-55765930710027518432023-01-27T11:33:08.049+00:002023-01-27T11:33:08.049+00:00Glad it was of interest.

There were probably few "pure" superhero fans that picked Disc/Record Mirror up if they weren't music fans so they probably missed this <br /><br /> Good point re Dave Sims later work I never thought of that .McSCOTTYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00180091610187270638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5747365665213229728.post-17220264616749028632023-01-27T03:01:16.804+00:002023-01-27T03:01:16.804+00:00It's not often I read about some comic or cart...It's not often I read about some comic or cartoonist which I had no previous knowledge of, even if it was merely seeing the name. But that's the case here. Thanks for a fascinating overview. I am reminded somewhat of the later Cerebus and how he's used today by Dave Sim.
