Yes Misty was a 1970's UK Horror/Mystery comic aimed at theteenage girls market. It had a well respected run by Fleetway/I.P.C. The property is now owned by Egmont.
Here is the Wikipedia entry...

Thanks Earl,
There is almost nothing on the wiki site about it. I'll do some digging. Congrats on a beauty of a buy.

I paid $5.76 for this. Supposed to be VFN but looks worse. Seems harder to find than the typical 1982 DC. Its in magazine format. I can't find much about it online...

Heeeey!
That is one super-cool Superman cover! I'm digging that! I've never laid eyes on that one before.

Wow, What a collection! Keep up the great collecting Earl! You started collecting more moderns in 2003, it increased until 2005 and has been dropping steadily ever since. Is that because you don't like most of the comics produced out now-a-days? TEX

It's the increasing cover prices that turned me off. Earl. Yep. I understand. Some comics are even up at $4.99 now. I never bought as much as you, but my monthly pulls have dwindled a bit in the past couple of years too. TEX PS - Did you see my new GS X-Men #1 in my thread?

This sees me still working on my 1982 DC set which is only aboout 3 issues from completion after this order. Most of the rest of the order is just my latest moderns for reading. I did manage to add another bronze age X-Men to my run as well and added just 1 to my 1982 Archie and Marvel sets. Here was the X-Men 92... 
Nice X-Men 92. I also like the most recent Batman comic. I like Tony Daniel's art and the story kept me interested so far. The Two-Face story before it wasn't pretty 'meh' though.
