Tiger - launch issues

Ace comics auctions Phil-comics (find them here on eBay) have excelled themselves in one of their recent auctions with some outstanding Tiger rarities. 

I looked at their sale of Tiger #1 (with free gift) - here

I looked at their sale of Tiger #2 (with free gift) - here

and they also had a poster advertising Tiger issues 1 & 2 (which sold for £228)...

Into Battle! - the exhibition, part 1

It's just finished but for anyone who missed it, here's part 1 of my look at the 'Into battle! - the art of British war comics' exhibition. 

Lots of lovely original Keith Burns art on display as you'll see

A recent sale on ebay caught my eye...yes, it was for a Marvel UK themed plastic bag! £22 the winning bid

The same seller also sold this collection of comic shop bags... £17 the winning bid this time

I've started (thanks to friend of the blog Bill Storie) showcasing just some of the art of Mike Noble. I've grouped together the images into a number of 'themes'...

Captain Scarlet was here

And now we move onto some of his work for Look and Learn

UPDATED: The real Ghostbusters - collected comics

I'm not a collector of Marvel UK's 'The Real Ghostbusters' comic but I've seen that the collected editions seem to be quite expensive so I thought I'd see if I could identify how many there are.

Ideally I'd love to be able to tell you what stories they reprinted (and from which issues) and which issue of the comic the cover has come from but, sadly, I can't. 

Instead if you can help me fill the gaps in the covers gallery below (#8 and #10) and confirm if the series went beyond #11 that would be very helpful!

Enjoy!  

UPDATE: I've now identified that there was an issue 13 - so I've added that to the gallery.

The big greenie comic

From 1995 here's a look at The big greenie - a self-styled kids comics all about green issues. Having read some of the strips I'm unclear about the link to actual, y'know, green issues, but there we go

Only 3 issues were produced apparently...
