Marvel comics film & fantasy convention 80

A recent auction sale by Excalibur auctions (here) gave a great 'behind the scenes' view of what went on at the Marvel comics film & fantasy convention 80. Check out that schedule! Sounds like a great day.

The badge appears yo have been designed by Jerry Paris - who has a brand new webshop open here

Fantastic Max - 1990 - Marvel & Redan

This was a comic I hadn't come across before until very recently. I like the look of the covers more than the interior work but there you go. The copyright notice state that this is published by Marvel Comics Ltd in association with The Redan company and that's about all I know about it.

At least 13 issues, if you know any more do let me know, thanks!

Fantastic Max, issue 1, 13th October 1990, 50p

Fantastic Max, issue 2, 27th October 1990, 50p
image not to hand - can you help?

Fantastic Max
, issue 6, 22nd December 1990, 50p


...and then at some point it becomes a month title (rather than fortnightly) and the price goes up to 75p (from 55p)

There was also a Spring Special - the advert is taken from a 1992 Superted Spring Special - and says out now so I think we can safely assume this was published.
