I have some big news for fans of Ken Reid - please, see my recent blogpost here: http://kazoop.blogspot.lt/2018/05/some- ... f-ken.html

Looking for help in identifying the dates of two strips in Tammy. I don't know the names of the stories but one was about twins Dawn & Midnight who were shown in a zoo like place and another one was about a girl being bitten and transforming into a spider. Any suggestions, please?

For the first time on my blog I have an article by a guest writer and a fellow member of this Forum John Wigmans. We have a shared enthusiasm for Gulliver Guinea-Pig and John’s article covers the origins of this character, best known for his appearances in Playhour nursery comic in 1958 - 1965. You ...

In the three most recent posts on my blog I showed 3 pieces of unpublished original artwork by Ken Reid, all being different versions of a crazy bird, drawn as a part of a series with which he hoped to attract the attention of Mad USA in 1969. You can see the last one here: http://kazoop.blogspot.lt...

As a new member on here I could well be looking in the wrong place but I cant seem to find any reference to my favourite comic as a boy-Cor !! -which was published in the early to mid '70's before it became part of Buster.Any one help? A few years ago I did the World's most comprehensive review of ...

I've shown covers of Buster issues 500, 1000 and 1500 in the two most recent posts on my blog. You can find them here: http://kazoop.blogspot.lt/2016/01/how-m ... uster.html

[/quote] I'm sure i read somewhere issue 500 was numbered incorrectly and it actually wasnt the 500th but fleetway messed up and didn't take strikes etc into consideration but i may have dreamt that :lol:[/quote] You are quite right. What they advertised as issue 500 was in fact No. 494. Issue 500 c...

You are 100 per cent right on both numbers

1902 issues all in all. I count double-dated issues as one issue. hankshanklin has the number right in his spreadsheet.
