Seconded.

thanks both - much appreciated, I'll keep doing is for as long as there are things that I think are worth covering. So, probably forever then, ha ha. I'm very happy to have taken over this small corner of the forum. Happy reading.

More power to Mike Dorey. I wasn't really a fan back in the day, but I can only marvel at his professional longevity and the consistent quality of his output. The work he did on Hellman in the recent Battle Action Special was the business.

I've updated my covers gallery for the various 'Count Duckula' comic series that were produced - still plenty of gaps that I could do with some help filling - thanks!
