Mervyn's Monsters!

What's this? I've always said that this blog is exclusively to promote my own work but here I am plugging a book by Leo Baxendale!? Well, Mervyn's Monsters gets a free pass because it contains a new introduction written by me.

 

Published by Irmantas Povilaika who did those two superb Ken Reid books several years ago, Mervyn's Monsters collects the full run of Leo Baxendale's comedy adventure serial that ran in Buster weekly in 1968. Similar in premise to Baxendale's Eagle-Eye, Junior Spy that he previously did for Wham!, the book involves a kid who works for the secret service, aided by his monsters in the fight against the villainous Mush, a bad guy in the Grimly Feendish mould. 

And of course it's very funny. Some of Leo's best work. 

Mervyn's Monsters is published with the permission of the copyright holders Rebellion and available in hardback (with an A4 print) or softback. The print run is limited, and only available to buy directly from Irmantas himself at this link:
