One thought on “Diana Annual 1977

  1. While I was having a clear out I found a couple of late Diana Annuals which I didn’t think I had. I can offer a few more suggested artist names for this year:

    Picture Stories:
    But Some Things are the Same… [Art: Norman Lee]
    One Dress Too Many [Art: George Martin]
    Can Time Repair a Broken Heart? [Art: Tony Hudson]
    Sadly the Olives Grow… Art: Shirley Tourret?]

    Although I can’t be certain about this, I personally would have said that the Fabulous Four story is by Enrico Badia Romero rather than Jordi.
