Other Appearances:
- Wendy the Winner – Mandy Annual 1971
The first series ran from issue 1 (Jan. 21 1967) to 12 (Apr. 8 1967).
A third series ran from 724 (Nov. 29 1980) – 733 (Jan. 31 1981).
Your information above is correct fot the second series. I haven’t yet checked to see whether the second and/or the third series are repeats as I am still making my selections for the book.
There is a single complete “Wendy the Winner” story in Mandy #380 (April 27, 1974). Also the number 3 series from 1980 is a different story. You have it listed on your website below this one.
“Wendy the Winner” is reprinted beginning in Mandy #1081 (October 3, 1987) and ending in Mandy #1091 (December 12, 1987). Wendy’s hair is changed, but nothing else. They removed her plats.
The word that you spelt as ‘plats’, Ronnie, is actually spelt ‘plaits’. According to my copy of THE NEW OXFORD DICTIONARY OF ENGLISH, the word ‘spelled’ is also acceptable.
Thanks, I wasn’t sure how to spell plaits. I guessed and spell check did not say it was wrong. Spelling was my weakest subject in school.
