The LOOK-IN PICTURE STRIP ARCHIVE

I got this quite cheap on eBay. Wasn't sure what to expect but something of a surprise to see it was a perfect bound reprint of a US comic version. I think this must have been the only time Look-In was involved with a whole direct reprint, as opposed to other syndicated fare like 'The Smurfs' and 'Garfield'.

Shocked

They did do reprints of strips in later annuals. and there was a special with a reprint of the complete Beatles strip in the early 80s.

I've just realised what you meant shaq!......doh!!! A reprint from a different comic, as opposed to reprints of Look-in strips. I didn't get hold of this special at the time, but I just assumed it was a strip version of the film, by one of the Look-in artists?.....that is an interesting point and I think it's the only time Look-in have done something like that.

John.
