Anyone know why the Guardian did this?

It got me to buy all seven issues.

Just caught up with events in time for today’s Whizzer & Chips, a particular fave! It’d be great if there was a dramatic demand for another round of such beauties but quite a bold series in the first place, I suppose.

Correction: the article on comics is in today’s Guide supplement to The Guardian. I’m misquoted in it unfortunately. (As if I’d say the genre was dead when I’m still earning a living from working in kids’ comics! I hate it when the media pretend that UK comics are gone.)

There’s also going to be an article on UK comics in The Guardian on Monday.

That’s fantastic. Definitely going to pick up the girls’ comics – for the early Pat Mills stuff, obviously.

Wonder if they’d be interested in putting out some original material, next year…
