I've long wanted to find copies of Comics news monthly the, er, monthly title about comics news that Gary Spencer Millidge (check out his website here) produced back in the day.
I've recently come across a few issues so I thought I start a covers gallery. Further details welcomed.
I'm grateful to friend of the blog Les Chester for providing today's update - covers for issues 2-7
Now, thanks to friend of the blog David Hathaway, updated with the cover to issue #12

this issue contains an apology for the 10p price rise but noting that "...it began as a single-sheet giveaway to my Comic Service customers, but has grown to interest other interested parties" - so goo luck tracking down those earlier issues!
contains a review of early issues of Scream!
