I've updated my guide to the Glasgow Comic Art Convention (1990-95) programmes and who contributed art to the programmes. I recently acquired the 1991 programme and so my set is complete, yay!

Anyone here a Grange Hill collector? I'm lacking cover images for two of the Grange Hill photo comics that Golden Wonder produced in 1987. Thanks in advance.

Something a bit different today...these slim publications are all text (no pictures!) but to me they're very evocative of 1950s comics art so I thought I'd snag the images for posterity
