the best place i've found for general jumbo is the Beano Annuals, he still appears in them today. It's not the same artist though. I think the t-shirt thing is a great idea. you could scan a picture from the strip into the computer and get it put on a shirt. i recon you could get 10 shirts done and sell them for ?8 to ?10 pound and see a profit. If i get enough people who are interested i'll get some prices and get them printed. would there be a copyright law against that?
