As it's the new year it's time for an update to my look at comics diaries. I'm sure more would have been produced by Girl and Swift but can you think of any other examples I've missed?

'Popular fairy tales' comic from Clearmark comics clearly wasn't very popular as it only lasted 6 issues back in 1990. My covers gallery is underway but there's a few gaps, any help appreciated.

A guide to the comics reference works by Norman Wright. This is the first time I've considered Wright as an author so if I've missed any books do let me know.
