Thanks jim244. Yeah, got over 30 pages now. Just love the way he draws his characters. I'm constantly amazed how much work Lew's done. Love his Dr Who strips too. Could have bought some of those recently for sale but had to juggle my finances. I know he's very approachable online being on countless comic art forums chatting to fans. Hell, he's a fan himself. Don't think he realises how good he is. He's an extremely nice bloke to deal with.

I haven't spoken to him personally Into The Abyss but have indeed heard that he's a very nice guy.
And I agree with you,I don't think he realizes how good he actually is.
He is brilliant.

Just sourced three more Lew Stringer pages of Buster "Tom Thug" comic artwork that appeared in issues from 1990/91 from the great man himself.

Just bought two more pages of Buster 'Tom Thug' comic art direct from Lew Stringer. Sourced one of the comics too that featured the art. Lew even included a cool little doodle as a surprise. See pics below.

Not sure jim224? It's very likely though. Coincidentally, first spoke to him via his blog about doing a commission. Very approachable. Got about 39 pages of his art now ranging from Tom Thug, Pete's Pimple & Vampire Brats...

Update : Sourced another two pages of Buster ,Tom Thug , art. Will upload it asap.

Just got another three pages of Lew Stringer comic art. Two Tom Thug's Skooldayz pages from 1989 & 1991 and one A2 page of Know How Magazine art from 2002.

Here's another signed Lew Stringer page of Tom Thug Buster comic art from January 18th 1992. And a cool Zombie sketch he generously included in with the art sent.

Here's another two fantastic signed Lew Stringer 'Tom Thug, The Brainless Bully' pages from the Buster comic way back in 1992. He also generously included a cool Combat Colin page as a gift too. Can't praise him high enough.

Brilliant stuff and Lew seems like a really nice guy.I used to read his blog but he sadly ended it a few years back.
Lew knows a hell of a lot about comics and comic history which is unsurprising as he is part of it.
Legend.

Yeah, I agree he's a legend. Funnily enough that's how I got to deal with him. I visited his website where he featured some of his Buster artwork. Left a comment and he kindly replied, although I made a right mess of my post spellingwise and later deleted it to his bemusement. Had to apologise but he said there was nothing wrong with it. A diplomat. But I'm amazed how many pages of Tom Thug art he's done. The last count I've got about 30 pages. Been trying to source the comics too for the art. Surprising how difficult it is. Slowly getting there though.

Sourced another two epic pages of Buster 'Tom Thug' comic art from the great man himself Lew Stringer. First is a page dated 19th September 1992 is from the Tom Thug story called, 'Stickers'. And the second page is dated 22nd January 1994 and from a story called, 'Snowball'.
