Digital SPELLBOUND collection coming for Halloween

There have been rumours from D.C. Thomson's Heritage Comics department and now it's been revealed on Twitter that they're releasing a Spellbound digital book on 30th October! A mixture of classic and new stories. Info in the image below.
Spellbound was published by D.C. Thomson from 1976 to 1977, and I looked back at an issue the other day on a blog post here.

 UPDATE: Looks like Spellbound may have encountered some gremlins. I'll post more news when it's available.

    Yes, a pure coincidence I assure you. That was my favourite cover of the few for sale on eBay so I chose that one.
    Obviously the editor of the new book liked that cover too!

    ^_^ yeah, I knew it was coincidence but I like them and it is a good image.

    Well, the new cover is actually a composite of that one and another one, so I assume that art was picked because it depicts the characters in the two featured stories?

    Yes, but there are other covers they could have chosen. It's a good image so they went with that one.

    Looks like that Twitter account you linked to has been deleted - says it doesn't exist.

    Yes, as I said, Spellbound has encountered some gremlins. The project is on hold for the moment but will hopefully be online again soon.
