Charity Shop comics: Comic Relief 1991

A fine visit to Hackney Oxfam today. For £4.50 I got 5 vintage Fighting Fantasy books, a Morecambe and Wise annual, this awesome bit of schlock horror from 1980...

and an abysmal Comic Relief special from 1991. Never mind the fact that it features a galaxy of my least favourite British comedy personalities, the real horror of this comic lies in it's cheesy appropriation of Marvel and DC legends to raise money for charity. I won't bore you with a lengthy analysis, these two panels should serve to give you a flavour of this awful publication.
