Is that Derek McCulloch who went on to found Strawberry Jam Comics?

Nightlife is on my list of comic runs to complete before I die!!

Yes is is. And night life's one my list of comics to complete too. I scripted about four more issues that never got published.

Also, I have no idea why I included my address twice. I guess back then, using a typewriter, it took so long to get to the bottom of the page you tended to forget what had gone on on the top of the page.

Cool.

I'd love to see night life finished.

I found it incredibly atmospheric and interesting.

Unlike most people I happen to love most of e comics that came out in the black and white explosion period.

I was very lucky that in my home town there was a back issue dealer who would sell these comics for 5p - 20p.

Yours was a great find in there, and loads of old Vortex comics as well.
