First of all I would just like to apologise for the lack of posts recently, especially for those of you who keep checking back here. I really must try and get more regular posts written for the Cobwebbed Room. If there are any of you that has something to contribute in the way of a post or picture then please don't hesitate. Anyway hope you have all had a wonderful Christmas and will have a wonderful new year.

First Published in 1989 Marvel's 'Wicked' comic was as far as I am aware had only a very short run, the issues you see here are the only ones that I have and I certainly don't remember seeing anymore after the 6th issue, I somehow missed the 5th issue too. 'Wicked's stories and artwork were very similar to those published in Fleetway's comiclines especially spooky and funny themed comics such as 'Monster Fun' and 'Shiver and Shake'. The stories featured regulary in the short run were as follows:
'SLIMER' [based on the 'Ghostbusters' character]
'GORDON GREMLIN'
'GHOSTMAN BAT AND HIS BLACK AND WHITE RAT' [A spoof on 'Postman Pat']
'BEST OF FIENDS'
'DUNSTABLE D.DRAGON'
'WINNIE THE WITCH DOCTOR'
'CLARE VOYANT'
'MUMMY's BOY' [Not the one featured in Fleetway's comics]
'GHOUL SCHOOL'
'TOAD IN THE HOLE'
'GHOSTHUNTERS'
'INSPECTOR SPECTRE'
The first 3 issues as shown below featured a free gift, the first issue were a pair of green plastic fangs, 2nd issue 4 removeable tattoos, and the 3rd issue a slimey'Real Ghostbusters' jelly sweet. Would love to know if anyone knows if there were any other issues after #6 or they have a picture of the 5th issue.
