Here's some more covers from my collection of SUPER DC, the TOP SELLERS reprint title from the late '60s, early '70s. Also shown are the free gifts from issue #1. Traditionally, British comics had free gifts in the first three issues, but that was usually only with weeklies. Perhaps because it was monthly, editor MICK ANGLO decided to put all three giveaways in the first issue - or it could have been that, individually, they weren't much to write home about, hence the 'quantity' rather than 'quality' approach.
Remember now, if anyone has issue #14 of Super DC (if it exists) and wants to sell it to me, get in touch. Then I can feature it on a future post.
With two or three exceptions (where interior panels were enlarged for the purpose), Mick Anglo is believed to have drawn the covers, using images from various DC sources as reference. If anyone knows anything different, I'd appreciate you letting me know.
Look out for the third and final part soon.
