*Boys’ Adventure & War Comics: In keeping with the current sporting zeitgeist, we’re releasing a selection of specials featuring Melchester’s favourite son, and one of the most famous English footballers, Roy of the Rovers! Beginning in Tiger in 1954, Roy Race’s career spanned four decades, spinning off into his own self-titled series in 1976, and he’s still well remembered by generations of readers! These are later Holiday Specials from Roy’s career, beginning with the 1984 release, and running (not consecutively) to 1990, as well as two Winter Specials from 1988 and 1989 respectively. (Interesting sidebar; when Roy’s earliest adventures were reprinted in the Hurricane weekly, the editors – to avoid confusion with Roy’s contemporary adventures – re-named him ‘Harry Kane’! Eerily prophetic, or what?)
