Comics Unlimited: My life as a Comic Collector and Dealer

Alan Austin (The Guv’nor) was one of the most respected figures in UK comic book fandom who did much to inspire and enthuse many others in the field. He was the first full-time comics dealer in the UK, and published many fanzines about American comic books throughout the 1970s and into the 1980s, including Fantasy Unlimited (later Comics Unlimited), the first Comic Book Price Guide for Great Britain, the Golden Age fanzine and the DC and Marvel Comics Indexes. This book details his life in comics, and his experiences as a comic collector and dealer from the early days of comic book fandom, beginning in the 1960s. Alan later became a respected book dealer. He never wrote a non-fiction book about this second career, but he did write a series of short stories based on his life as a book dealer: The Adventures of Bernie Burrows, Bookseller. —- ISBN: 9798570856974
