Disclose Notes: All stories in this issue look look like they are from UK girls' comics, generally with UK settings. The style of lettering on the stories in this issue and the occasional typo (eg, "bea" rather than "be a"; "foreing" rather than "foreign") suggest they might have been translated from a Spanish source, rather than being reprinted directly from UK romance comics. The use of "Selecciones Ilustradas - Derechos Reservados - España" on Paradise Lost also suggests a Spanish source. Several stories show evidence of artwork reformatted and retouched for a different size page.
