Mirabelle #11 October 1969

In "Questions! Questions!" from Mirabelle #11 (October 1969), Jill finds herself caught between a hurried appointment and an unexpected encounter when a survey taker stops her on the street. Later, after enduring a barrage of probing questions from Alec's aunt, Jill can’t help but notice the survey man again—and wonder if their paths were ever truly random.

In "Dolly in Distress," Jo finds herself caught between dream and reality when the Tarzan-like figure from her nightly visions begins appearing in the waking world—first rescuing her from a bench marked "Wet Paint," then leading her to the zoo in search of answers. Written by an unknown hand and illustrated by an unknown artist, the story blends whimsy and mystery as Jo follows the dream's thread into the real world.

In "The Escalator," Julie’s routine investigation of an abandoned block of flats takes a surreal turn when she stumbles upon a hidden fragment of Mao’s China at the base of an escalator. Fleeing gunfire, she scrambles to expose the truth on television—only to find her story dismissed as madness.
