This was, of course, a spoof on the oh-so-popular tv classic,
   "Charlie's Angels" starring Angel, a Farrah Fawcett lookalike
    and the three drooling dolts who followed her around all day
    with their tongues on the floor. Angel would dupe the love-
    struck trio into helping her get in to concerts and things, or
    assist her in some way. It wasn't very fair, the way she
    would hoodwink the three each week, without ever reconciling
    their passion for her, but - hey - it serves 'em right for being
    so sappy in the first place...

    Fleetway strips frequently cashed in on the latest tv, film
    and fashion trends and Angel's was a fine example. However,
    it was somewhat disconcerting to find the lead character
    sporting that adult-looking head on such a child-like body...

    Spooky, innit?


     Angel, she's no Charlie!
