[rec.music.gaffa] KT in comics

graham@wraith.cs.uow.OZ.AU (Graham Dombkins) (11/30/89)

	Recently I went on a shopping trip to Sydney to get a few
Christmas gifts for my family. I am pleased to say that KT posters
and albums were much in evidance. In fact I picked up that SW poster
just by asking for it across the counter. No sign yet of the CD single.

	Anyway, the reson for this posting is because of a discovery
I made while I was looking through a comic store (Comic Kingdom).
There, hidden down to one side of the store, was a comic cover that
emediately got my attenion. It was a perfect reproduction of KT from
the cover of The Whole Story. It turns out that there is a comic series
put out by the Inovative Corparation titled "Inovation : Media Starr"
and the heroin is a dead ringer for KT. They go even as far as to use
obvious reproductions of KT albums and posters for there front covers!

	issue #1 : Cann't remember.
	issue #2 : The Dreaming
	issue #3 : The Whole Story.

	Somebody else check them out and see what you think.

Actually, in the art-work inside the comic book, the heroine looks
nothing like Kate Bush, nor is any mention of her ever made.  The
art-work of the heroine on each of the covers, however, is indeed
truly copied from photos of Kate Bush.  One is a common plubicity
photo circa *Hounds of Love*.  The other two are from the covers of
*The Dreaming* and *The Whole Story*, as you mentioned.
