ReplyDeleteGreetings
ReplyDeletePlease, keep bringing these compilations.
Good Job, thks
Thank you again.
ReplyDeleteDid you come across "Misty: 45 Years Of Fear " ? It obviously cannot be exhaustive .
I borrowed the french anthology of Misty from the public library, it's only 170 pageslong and five stories - Moonchild, Roots, The four faces of Eve, The shadow of a doubt, Sentinels. I have no idea whether the english edition is longer.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking for a story published in Judy in 1981, "Nothing ever goes right!", and also according to a dossier published in "9e Art - les cahiers de la bande dessinée" N°6, there were good realistic and rather dark stories in Tammy in the early eighties.
If you ever find these...!
Salut !
