*Boys’ Adventure & War Comics: “Warning: Not to be purchased by those easily frightened!” So ran the tagline on Legend Horror Classics, a monthly periodical which briefly enlightened the UK’s newsstands in 1975 and 1976. An ingenious fold-out format presented one (sometimes two) giant horror posters (usually stock photos from movie studios), and an all-new comic strip, many of which – as well as most of the series’ covers – were generated by a baby Kevin O’Neill (famous for Marshall Law, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, etc.), in what must have been one of his first pro gigs. Criticised by Mary Whitehouse and her League of Meddlesome Ratbags for violently corrupting the nation’s youth, this was one instance in which Mrs. W. and her chums need not have exerted themselves to get on their high horses, as issue #12 was the final edition. We have the first 9 issues in decent shape, averaging Fine – they have all at one point been folded out, but they’ve been folded back carefully, and have no tears, stains, scribbles or excessive creasing – and since with issue #10 they dropped the comic strip, we don’t really care about the rest, do we?
