You're so right!Used to absolutely hate reading that.

Do you recognize the style of this guy, Ken Reid - a real hero of mine:



As well as illistrating Frankie Stein, Faceache and Martha's Monster Makeup, Reid also produced one page ‘fillers’ for Shiver and Shake’s Creepy Creations in 1973. Whoopee’s Wanted Posters in 1974 and the original WWW in the shape of his World Wide Wierdies. These were usually based on suggestions from the readers who received a cash prize for their suggestions.

His artwork seemed so bizarre to me as a kid. If I had the free cash I'd love an original piece of his art.

And full strips from a few other comics mentioned here: http://www.comicsuk.co.uk/FullStrip/FullStripMain.asp

Excellent thread! I'd completely forgotten about some of these titles.

Very interesting article here on 'controversial' 'Action', mid-70s precursor to 2000AD.

Ahh, Fuzz, you've made me go back into the depths of my past!

A little bit of googling brought me to Power Comics!






I know I had issue 1 of Fantastic and pretty much all of Terrific. My introduction to the wunnerful world of Marvel!
