Tammy was a weekly girls' comic that ran from Feb 1971 to Jun 1984.
The comic was conceived to breathe new life into the genre of girls' comics; writer Pat Mills summed up the publication's ethos as "hard, gutsy stories that don't have to have a happy ending...combined with a strong camp quality, very clever plotting, ingenious ideas and totally over the top but still realistic concepts."
A number of comics merged into Tammy over the years: Sally in 1971, Sandie the following year, June in 1974, Misty in 1980, Jinty in 1981 and Princess in 1984. Later that year Tammy itself merged into another comic, Girl.
