I'm pretty sure that's an accurate assessment, Peter. I've certainly never seen anything like them in Liverpool in the last forty-odd years, and we do have most things up here, although it has to be said that Crikey! is usually a bit delayed. :D

It's not a blog, but I found this page after Digifiend referred to this site on another thread recently. This page is very entertaining/interesting and it's nicely presented.

Whose site is it? Someone on this forum?

I've finally taken the tentative steps regarding my own blog after considering this option for some time.

It's been running less than a day, and first I'm adding existing archive artwork which illustrates this stuff nicely.

All-new material will be added after the early drawings are 'archived' first. It's so easy to do a blog: just the same as putting stuff on here! No mystery whatsoever........

Details in the link below.

Much appreciated, Peter! Your Services to all things cartoonhood is to be applauded.

I often thought about asking you advice on setting up a blog, but it turned out pretty easy [so far], although it's early days yet, and the layouts and templates I am using are pretty basic this far.........hoopefully I can get more polished visuals in the near future, but for the moment, this is fine .


Thanks again for all your support!

Now the Dandy is more comic based..maybe your comic style will suit it..might be worth trying Rab..they have comic strips inside for example..maybe not Baby Boomer But something else..

i'm really enjoying your blog...very interesting your thoughts and processes as well..

I'm also working on brand new character stuff,Peter........who knows, I may present some stuff to the comics before long. I will be retaining all rights to the Boomer stuff, though, whatever happens.

But I have a few other ideas up my sleeve.



Glad you seem to like the blog........and you can call me
SPY if you so wish!
