1993: COMIC TALK MAGAZINE Issue 1


I must admit that I have no recollection of COMIC TALK from the era: I don't remember seeing any copies at the time and this is the first time I've stumbled across a copy (in the 50p bins... of course).

No doubt this was one of several new launches that were inspired by the success of WIZARD and capitalizing on the passing of the old guard of eighties titles like AMAZING HEROES and COMICS INTERVIEW.

    1. Thanks Ed!

      Good grief! I had no idea it lasted so long (I was willing to bet it was a done-in-one to be honest). I wonder how I managed to miss every single issue way-back-when. Maybe it was only handled by a smaller distributor (back in the pre-Heroes World days of multiple Direct Sales distributors) or one that didn't service UK stores.
