The Beano, The Dandy & my favourite School Friend. Vivienne

Dandy, Beano, Topper, Beezer and swap them around with others. Fab 208 Jackie and a pop song lyrics one which i can't remember the name of :-( Some American one like the American Dennis the Menace, Archie and ones with Wimpey and Mutt & Jeff in them :-))) Used to read all the time, fave place to read was the lauderette before we got our own washing machine. Pat x

I used to read the Pippin when very young when I got older I read the Bunty and the Judy my big sister used to read the Valentine and Miriabelle or something like that

Deanna - We are ancient ! You, Me. Harry Hayes. Poirot, Doc Doolittle Paul and perhaps many more - all remembering comics from the thirties and forties, the previous century !! Which means we have all been using our bus passes for at least ten years but as someone said, they were happy days and we all swapped which is probably why the Doc has a loft full and will probably never sell them even though they are worth a small fortune !

You are all so YOUNG! My daughters had Bunty and Twinkle...... Go on, make feel ancient why don't you? Deanna X

I started off on Twinkle and then went on to Jackie for a while and then in came My Guy and Oh Boy.They used to have a photo story of 'real life' problems which usually involved two-timing boyfriends or unrequited love....Ahhhhhhh wasn't life so difficult then!

I am going back a bit here , early 1930s, anyone remember the 'Comic Cuts ' ?

Alice, We LOVED Look In! Was that the one that came about once a month - and it had that fantastic kids' TV series called Timeslip about a girl called Liz/Beth (depending on which time she was in ) and a boy - it was the first time I'd ever heard of clones! Yes Christine - I did say I was heading for bed a while back, but as usual, got slightly sidetracked! Night all! Sue (in NZ)

I used to love getting Judy to read, I then went onto Jackie ---Was that the one with the pullout centre page of the latest popstar? In my teens it was the NME. Jill xx :)

The Beano, The Dandy and Girl. I remember Girl as it was a much bigger comic than the others and was printed on glossy paper. Beryl x

Beano! I still have my old comics in the loft. I have about 1000 of them!

can anyone remember a kind of Junior radio times mag called , was it, ''Look In''?- sure my brother used to have that. Alice
