1984: EAGLE JUNE ISSUES (IPC)

Back to the summer of 1984 and June's editions of the EAGLE.

The month's highlights included:
- The start of BLOODFANG, the Eagle's own devil dinosaur, as Manix bowed out.
- A freebie cover-mounted Weetabix "Shrinkie" (you colour it then put it in the oven and the plastic shrinks.  A miracle of '80's technology.  Further Shrinkies would have been available in special packs of the cereal.
- The launch of the ill-fated IPC/ KP Skips Free Comic Offer.  Which I'll cover in more detail in a future post.
