Spellbound (DC Thomson)

Spellbound was a girls comic published by DC Thomson in the mid 1970s; it ran for at least 64 issues, and focused on traditional girls comic stories but with a supernatural or paranormal twist. Strips included Marina(about a young Gipsy girl who could see the future, who had been adopted as the mascot of a motor racing team), I Don't Want to be a Lady (about a penniless orphan being forcibly raised in luxury by a wealthy family), The Mask of Menace (about a girl who discovers a sinister artifact in the geography room of her boarding school), Supercats] (about a quartet of spacefaring female superheroes) and Village of Fear, about dastardly goings on in the imaginatively named village of Fearton! There were also short stories introduced by one Damian Darke, mostly centring on doomed romances.
