    2. Dear Lisa

      I am not certain whether this post will reach you, is there any possibility of getting such a comic through to me? I am quite willing to pay for the cost of the comic and also for postage, etc. that will be required? I can be reached on wayne@hfxsystems.com

      Regards

      Wayne

    3. Dear Lisa,
      I'd be most gracious if you could do me a favour and have a second look at the copies of Chunkie, She and Supermask you scaned for this blog; I'd be most curious to find out who the publisher was. Is there any information on the inside of the covers? Or at the back? I'd be most grateful!
      Best

  9. I cannot believe these have re-emerged in my life. I 'starred' in several in the 70s and oh to be young and foolish again!

  12. Lisa, do you still have copies of these books? (Please let me know. My email address is given at the end). They were the food that made me score the highest marks in English Language classes throughout my schooldays. That is, aside from entertaining me so thoroughly, here in Zambia in the '70's.

    I now have written two books of my own. Rupert Chimfwembe (rupertcee@yahoo.com)
