Re: Beano Videos and DVDs

Bah! Looks like we have a post not showing up... Thanks for adding my post. I did wonder about it, but thought it was just my computer playing up! :) You won't find it online. It was never released on VHS or DVD and The Children's Channel closed 15 years ago. Ahh.. that's a shame! :( Never mind, th...

Re: Beano Videos and DVDs

I don't suppose anyone knows the name of the series? I've tried searching different things on YouTube, but just get the newer series and the American Dennis. As for the subject of Beano doing a new cartoon, I think it would be good if they had a short cartoon of different characters to go at the end...

Thanks for sharing this, I've not seen that before and was nice to see those clear images of the adverts.

Re: What is your favourite blog at the moment?

Well, I'm kinda biased on this matter, as it is my friends blog. She just moved to China and is posting (when she's not having too much fun) on her experiences there, so it is a nice way to see what she is getting up to.

Re: Comics on TV

A question on Take On The Twisters a minute ago asked "In which comic did the Bash Street Kids appear in?" The contestant didn't know that it was The Beano. At least they didn't get it wrong though, they only passed (would've been embarrassing if they'd said Whizzer and Chips for example). But they...

Re: What comics did you buy today?

Today was 74 issues of 'Plug' comic. A near complete run, so close yet so far. Just missing issue #51. Considering I have never once bought a single issue of it, not a bad way to start!
However, I really must stay away from eBay, it really is too tempting! :lol:

Re: The Beano from the week you was born.

(I'm 18th July, by the way) Wouldn't yours be the following issue then? It would be 20th July, released on 18th. Mine is the 14th October 1989. I do have it somewhere, but it is at the bottom of a big pile. I did check comic vine, but it was just my luck they would have the 7th and 21st, but not th...

Re: What comics did you buy today?

Today on eBay, I won 12 copies of Nutty (in 4 separate auctions), totalling just under £7 with postage, from 1982/83. The next item I won (I apologise to anyone on here who may have been bidding on it) was a lot of 62 Beezer comics from the 1972,73,74,75 & 79, of which I ended up spending around £45...

Re: Tips on storing A3 size comics

Thanks for the help. I was actually worried that such large comics would be hard to store neatly in a ring binder, but the image you shared, blaing, shows that they do look great. Also, Peter Gray, thanks for that link, I will hopefully be getting some soon, as I have a couple of drawers which could...

Re: Tips on storing A3 size comics

This is what I was worried about. The easiest solution would be to stick them straight back in the tube, but I worried this could cause creases. Then again, as you mentioned, finding enough space to keep them flat is not easy. My bedroom is already full (a problem I'm sure many on here understand, w...

Tips on storing A3 size comics

Hi all! :) Just this morning I had a delivery of two Beezer comics from 1962 and was surprised to see they were in much better condition than I was expecting, without the usual creasing across the middle where its been folded (obviously due to someone caring for them over the years and being kind en...

Re: What comics did you buy today?

Today has been rather mad. This morning, I won 11 lots I had been watching on eBay, each containing 3 Beezer comics from 1984/85. Then, during the day, I won two more Beezers, from July 5th and 12th 1969. So, 35 comics today. Only problem, I'm still waiting on the reply for the combined postage, so ...
