THE CRUNCH COVER GALLERY - PART NINE...

Images copyright D.C. THOMSON & Co., Ltd

As I was preparing the covers for this post, I was

listening to a radio programme about something-or-other and

heard someone say "That's the crunch of the matter!"  How apt

is that, eh?  And so we return to The CRUNCH cover gallery,

featuring the DCT comic which lasted for 54 issues from 1979

to 1980.  Similar in some respects (if you squint a bit) to IPC's

2000 A.D. (especially its use of the term "thrill power"),

you'd have thought it would've lasted  longer.

Some people no doubt think I don't include enough info

about the comics I feature, but comics are a visual medium,

and I prefer to let the images speak for themselves.  Whenever

I'm perusing other blogs, I'd rather see good-quality pictures of

comics from the past, and bring my own thoughts, memories and

associations to the table, than have someone witter on about

things I already know.  Besides, sometimes there's no new

facts I can add, so I tend not to bother trying.

Anyway, here are some nice covers for you to look at.

Wanna see more?  Then let me know, frantic ones!
