It's time to testify.

Indeed.

I remember having corned beef in the antideluvian 1970s, usually for school lunch.

Anyone have a Naval family,chipped beef on toast? When my dad was in the army (WW2) basic rations were usually bully beef (corned beef) which I suspect is much the same thing.

Hugely informative, eye-opening thread. Many thanks for all the hard work!

Lot of short-lived DC books in that period. I was there during the Implosion of '78. It wasn't pretty. Some stuff I liked at the time: Freedom Fighters, SSOSV, Plastic Man, etc - probably because they were some of the few books that actually got shipped over here on a regular basis. I still preferred Marvel though. I had gotten into DC first as there were far more of their titles coming over (at least to London) in the early ' 70s. By the mid to late ' 70s, I was reading more Marvels than DCs. The three titles you mentioned were amongst the best that DC were putting out at that point.

Double zing! I know, I know, it was a tremendous leap of thought to come up with something as Swiftian, Wildean and unbearably hilarious as that.

I remember buying that issue at a newsagent back in the mid 70s. Great fun, that book. The title should've lasted longer - a victim of the DC cutbacks of that era.

Actually you look less plastered than usual.
