Above are images from the CPLGang's Charlton Portfolio from 1974. It was this production with information about Charlton's heroes alongside some great artwork that convinced George Wildman that a fanzine like The Charlton Bullseye would work.

I've had a copy of the Portfolio for years and years. I don't remember now where I first chanced across it. But a few years ago, I headed off to the Mid-Ohio Con and took my copy with me since Roger Stern was scheduled to be there. I wanted him to sign it. He did, but sitting right next to him and for sell were mint copies of the Portfolio for ten bucks a piece. That was a bargain indeed, so I bought a crisp new one which he signed too. It's a beauty.

Enjoy!
