Back on it for day 5 of my fave #britishcomics #girlscomics team ups - let’s go with the classic Four Marys from Bunty. Here’s a reprint of the ‘frolicsome foursome’’s debut in 1958.

Day 4 (belated as I went out last night and forgot) of my top #comicbook team ups from #britishcomics #girlscomics - it’s the Tiny Taylors from Spellbound! Shrunk to tiny size while on holiday in Scotland, they need to travel far to figure out how to return to their normal forms.

OK I’m joining this #comicbook challenge - aiming for 10 days of my fave #BritishComics & #GirlsComics teams. Day 1: the Supercats! The unnecessarily sexily drawn crew of the Spaceship Lynx, a superpowered team (tho with a leader with no powers) whose adventures are a bonkers mix of sf and magic…
