		<description><![CDATA[All the way back in May 2011, I decided to &#8216;retrospectively&#8217; ask IPC for permission to use Sexton Blake in my Red, White &#38; Blue comic, and got turned down! So I decided to re-launch the comic, now with a new detective called Norman Saxon, and three black and white serial comics instead of two. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve wanted to so a series of &#8220;overviews&#8221; of comics for ages now, but held off because I wanted to have a &#8220;good range&#8221; of issues from a title&#8217;s run before writing the article. BUT that was taking too long, and for some papers may prove nearly impossible, as they are very rare. So I&#8217;m [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[No, don&#8217;t worry, they haven&#8217;t added any colour to it! (Mind you, if Commando sales are increasing and if The Phoenix can establish a bridgehead, could a re-launch of The Victor, &#8220;The new colour weekly from the makers of Commando!&#8221; be an outside possibility?), instead they have improved the printing dramatically.
A while ago, DC Thomson [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently found a cool blog about Japanese comics (mainly!), Three Steps Over Japan:
http://threestepsoverjapan.blogspot.co.uk/
The writer likes to collect and make &#8220;papercraft&#8221; free gifts, which regularly come with comics over there. This got me thinking about the &#8220;penny plain, tuppence coloured&#8221; toy theatres that used to come with the Penny Dreadfuls, and which were the origin [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The late forties was an interesting time for British comics. Much of the &#8220;old guard&#8221; had been swept away by Graveyard week in 1940 and the American &#8220;slicks&#8221; had become incredibly popular among kids lucky enough to get some from a friendly G.I.

		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;of Japan&#8217;s best weekly adventure comic and Britain&#8217;s best (only!) weekly adventure comic.*
It&#8217;s no secret that I hold Japan up as an example of how the comic industries of all countries ought to function. Thick, cheap weekly anthologies with exciting serials, which are then collected into better-printed book form for fans to collect. I&#8217;m not [...]]]></description>

My regular buys, though some have not so regular publication!
The Phoenix is a new, weekly British adventure comic that is distributed (apparently) in (some) shops. It launched on Saturday&#8230; not that you&#8217;d have noticed if you didn&#8217;t read the Times or British Comic websites. As it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

Four digits written in fire on the pages of our history, Britain entered that year apprehensive about the &#8220;phoney war&#8221; and left it wondering if she&#8217;d ever see 1942. Large parts of our cities were rubble and the families of many a soldier and airman spent Christmas dinner with an empty place at the [...]]]></description>
