Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories
Are you planning a marathon read through of the whole lot in order?
Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories
Yes, that's the plan, with my son who was seven when we started this quest and will be 10 next month.Raven wrote:Are you planning a marathon read through of the whole lot in order?
Sadly completion still seems like a long way off - those last 6 editions / episodes could take ages to find

Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories
Perhaps you can list the missing issue dates? Someone here might have one or two of them.
Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories
Good idea - don't have all the dates to hand at the moment but I know I am missing episode one of 'Pursuit' which was on 2nd January 1971 - that one is fairly key to the whole thing!!
Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories
The list of editions I have still to get are; 02-Jan-71, 16-Jan-71, 15-Jan-72, 05-Feb-72, 02-Dec-72, 24-Feb-73

Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories
I probably have all of them. But they are in storage. I'm off tomorrow and may have a delve in my storage unit. I wouldn't sell them though as it would break up a long run.
Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories
I'd even be grateful for scans of just the story pages at this stage - and would happily pay or make a charitable donation to complete the story. I will still buy the issues when I see them for sale as well.
Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories
Pleased to say this has been sorted! Grateful thanks to all who responded with offers of help!
Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories
I've just been reminded that there's an 8 page 'Beware of the Puzzler' strip in the 1974 Whizzer and Chips Annual, so perhaps ovaltrack's mission has not quite ended yet!
Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories
Ah thank you! The pursuit continues!
Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories
Got hold of the Annual - thanks again for pointing that out.
Bad news though - we've been working through the comics with the Puzzler stories and hit on a gap in the collection which is down to my appalling record keeping - there is still one missing issue - 22 Jan 1972.
We only need the Puzzler story (2 pages) scanned if anyone can help? Thanks in advance if you can!

Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories
Hopefully sorted again now - fate threw an eBay copy of the said issue into my browser last night!
