*Vintage UK/Australian Reprints of US Material: Len Miller was the premier UK publisher of ‘faux’ American-sized British comics in the 1950s and early 1960s. He published a wide range of material, both original and US reprint, perhaps most famously Marvelman and Young Marvelman. Although succeeded by Alan Class, there was a period in the early 1960s where both publishers overlapped and some of Miller’s titles (Mystic, Spellbound, Voodoo and Zombie) closely resembled the type of content also being used by Alan Class, reprinting Atlas, pre-hero Marvel and other early horror, with occasional forays into the Marvel Super-Hero Universe. Such examples are Spellbound #54 & #55, where, among such horror/mystery reprints, early Avengers issues were reprinted (in black and white, as were all these titles) complete with covers. Both are crisp, clean copies with sharp corners and a minimum of wear. #54 reprints Avengers #3 and has a small 1.5 cm piece of the bottom spine missing; #55 reprints Avengers #2.
