Very interesting but in one you lament the lack of snow on Christmas mastheads - I bought the Xmas beano a few weeks ago and that did have snow (maybe not on the outer bag masthead though) but it looked more like cotton wool than snow I thought, far too fluffy looking. Do you know the name of the artist who drew Nick Kelly in the Beezer (or was it the Topper) in the early '70s ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-17731465530748831332015-01-16T22:32:36.368+00:002015-01-16T22:32:36.368+00:00No doubt I'll get around to showing the weekly...No doubt I'll get around to showing the weekly strips on the blog at some stage, JP.Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07224781868125924337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-41034036327945360202015-01-16T21:57:07.630+00:002015-01-16T21:57:07.630+00:00I liked Lopez's art in Kelly's Eye, so I s...I liked Lopez's art in Kelly's Eye, so I suspect some atmospheric, gothic strips for Tri-Man in the weeklies!

Had that been the case, I couldn't have scanned it. If I remember correctly, it was Solano Lopez who drew the strip in the weekly comic.

I was going to say, "Tri gently, but if looks like it would crease it, then don't risk it!" Anyway, really great to see (and download!) these! You've shared so much with me over the years! I really appreciate it!<br />Did Ron Turner also draw the strips in the weekly as well? If not, can you remember who did without digging them out?John Pitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08035300858247327343noreply@blogger.com
