DetailsThis week I’ve decided to write about the fanzine, The Heroine Addict. This fine fanzine, dedicated to Super-Heroines, was published beginning in September 1974, and ran till it’s final issue, #11, in the summer of 1977. Actually it then became Heroines Showcase, but I’ll leave those issues for another edition of Fabulous Finds! That version…

DetailsWelcome to another edition of Fabulous Finds! Okay, so you might be asking, just why am I writing about a pop record from June/July 1965? Well, I could answer; because I love music almost as much as I love comics, or maybe even more! If there was any interest, I’d do a music column, sharing…
