ACTION IN TV COMIC...

Copyright relevant and respective owners

I treated myself to a sequential trio of issues of TV Comic recently, including the first combined number with TV Action.  Truth to tell, as Dr Who and Dad's Army had started in TV Comic, as had Droopy (if I recall rightly - so it was probably a reprint), it was pretty much the same as it had always been, apart from the inclusion of the TV Action logo on the cover.  One of my very favourite comic strips is Mighty Moth, created, written, and drawn by the mighty Dick Millington, who had been editor of TV comic between the years 1967 and '73.  So here's the three Mothy strips from my trio of issues - you're sure to get a laugh out of them, especially from the dialogue in the final panel of the second strip.

You didn't think I was going to leave you hanging in regard to the Tom & Jerry strip, did you?  Below is the second page to the cover story, which probably wouldn't be permitted nowadays because of the perceived levels of 'violence', cartoon violence though it is.
