When the venerable story paper Wizard was laid to rest in 1962, publishers DC Thomson let the title lie fallow for several years before relaunching the title in 1970, with a new #1 and a higher comic-strip content. Among the newer features were ‘Soldiers of the Jet Age’, ‘Scrappy – A Boy All Alone’, ‘Trooper Bo-Peep, He’s After A Sheep’ (file under the heading: ‘You’d never get away with that these days’), ‘Cool Kragg the Team Maker’, ‘The Voice That Ran The Rangers’, ‘Out of the Ice He Came’, ‘Slave of the Ring (Boxing ring, in case you thought that sounded a bit girly), and a comic-strip biography of George Best, which we suspect even then would have had to be quite severely bowdlerised for junior consumption. This is a decent copy of the debut issue, graded VG, minor cover wrinkling but no creasing, clean interiors, on sale at £25. SORRY, THIS HAS NOW SOLD
