Misty Bundle

Misty was a weekly girls' comic conceived mostly by Pat Mills and published by Fleetway from 4th February 1978 to 12th January 1979.

When it launched it sold 170,000 copies a week. Misty ran for a total of 101 issues before being merged with Tammy, where its logo appeared prominently on the cover for 34 issues, and then rather less prominently for another 51 before disappearing completely.

Despite its comparatively short run, Misty is very well remembered for its unusual tone and the quality of its stories: unlike most girls' comics at the time, Misty had an underlying theme — the supernatural — and some of the stories were genuinely spooky. The comic was 'hosted' by Misty herself, a mysterious girl who dwelled in the 'Cavern of Dreams' next to a strange pool.

This bundle includes 2 publications:
