lol

Fine, I'll add them since I have a little time on hand. I've just submitted Real Clue #5. The Brazilian FG is tricky - I think I know which series it is, but is there an issue number somewhere? (The scan metadata suggests #17 - is that right?)

Edit: also submitted Linda Lark, Lark, Laaaaark

I do not care much for it.

I just DM'd you another 50 scans. Can you get them up to GCD by Monday? And make sure the resolution stays the same this time. I wasn't that happy with the last batch.  :taptaptap:

I keep telling you that we'd get a better result if you just sent me the books instead of the scans. You'll get them back just as soon as the dog has finished digesting the baby chickens.

OK, so I've added the following UK comics to the GCD. They are pending approval but should be visible soon. I haven't touched the Marvel variants, and I don't intend to because I don't understand them well enough to avoid errors!

Linda Lark 2
Real Clue 5
Down with Crime 54
Looney Tunes 2
Katy Keene 52

edit: Impossibles annual added

DC metro area.

Ahh..my old stomping ground. I grew up in Springfield. Spent many a distracted hour in the Geppi's in the Crystal City Underground, or at various Jubilee Comic Conventions. :cloud9:

These are (now?) on the GCD. #1-4 of that series are broken out separately.

I spotted that. I've noticed it happens fairly regularly. One of the irritating thing about the GCD is the lack of uniformity in some of the more obscure entries. I try to correct them when I notice them, but I don't always have the time. :juggle:

What's the series title for this one? I couldn't find 'True Secret Diary' or 'Romance picture stories' in the GCD.

Is the above Digest sized? Is it Australian? In the UK digests were 1/- for many years but I have seen 1/- Micron digests also with 1/3 or 1/6 prices. Of course the KG Murray/Atlas Supermans etc had different prices for the UK and Australia.

Digest, yes.  Australian, yes.

Jayar Studios by way of Gordon & Gotch Distributors.

Well, yes. lol

But usually the series is there and the individual issue is missing. If you can be bothered, PM me the indicia and I'll get it added.

It appears Jayar is the name of the cover artist or packaging studio that produced/packaged content for a number of Australian publishers in the 1950s. Gordan and Gotch were/are? distributors of numerous periodicals. Regal was the publisher. It is on the GCD but without an image.
