Comic, Summer Special & Annual Collection for Sale

Post by Diamond »

I've just uncovered my (almost) complete collection of Battle Action Force comics, summer specials and annuals. They've all got to go as we're about to move house! Keen for all to go as a single lot. If you're interested, please let me know:

+ Battle Action Force comic series from 22 October 1983 through to 4 March 1989. This was complete, but following previous house moves I am now missing the period 28 December 1985 to 15 March 1986. 'Battle Action Force’ comics ran from October 1983 to December 1986; It became 'Battle' from Dec '86 to Jan ’87 before rebranding itself as 'Battle with Storm Force' until Jan ’88. Battle then merged withe The Eagle to become ‘The Eagle & Battle' from Jan ’88 to Jun ’88 after which it became simply ‘The Eagle’ until that also merged with the Mask comic to become ‘The Eagle & Mask’ from Oct '88.

3 x Battle Action Force Holiday Specials (not dated)
2 x Battle Holiday Specials
1 x Eagle Holiday Special
3 x Warlord Summer Specials
1 x Victor Summer Special
They’re all in pretty good order - a number have the back page removed where there would have been a cut out and collect feature.

I've also got Annuals:

+ Battle: 1978, 79, 80, 84, 88 and 89
+ Battle Action Force: 1985, 86 and 87
+ Warlord: 1984, 86, 87 and 89
+ Hotspur: 1979 and 84.

Very happy to supply more details if anybody is interested.

Kindest Regards, Diamond

Last chance on this collection! Free to a good home (only P&P to pay/collection to organise (Portsmouth or London)) or they'll be off to the Dump.

Damn. I've been slowly getting a few as they come along in Australia. If you want to come over for a holiday I'd be glad to take them.
