@Helen_S_Porter @KirstieMAllsopp 💯

@KirstieMAllsopp Tax the rich then. Let’s take every single penny they (you?) ‘DO NOT NEED’. Do you think that’s ’reasonable’?

A writer so successful that today is a day dedicated to him in schools all over the country thinks it is reasonable that he travels for free due to his age. People have to stop taking things they do not need, it is wrong and it is bankrupting our country.

We’re extremely proud of this book. Written by fans, for fans, with many, many contributions by even more fans. This is a perfect gift for someone discovering women’s football for the first time, and long-term supporters alike. hernebooks.com/product-page/t… #womensfootball #woso #wsl #swpl

@scout_eurasia Please delete the video.

@BobaGruber I would have mentioned her, but seeing as her mere presence always seemed to cause a multi-car pile-up I thought it responsible not to on this occasion. :-)

@GNFARcomics Not forgetting Lilly Pop, The Lollypop lady.

Kids always love a joke. There must have been more one-liners packed into an issue of Cheeky than in any other comic. The title was based on the central figure, gag-master-in-chief Cheeky, and a large cast of supporting regulars – some of whom sat on this Joke Box Jury.

All this week I’m posting some glimpses of one the titles on display on the racks of my time-travelling newsagent – visiting this week from the first full week of September 1978. Pop back tomorrow for another inky-fingered memory from when comics ruled the world.

‘Gunga Jim’, one of the recurring characters, is lazily named after a racial trope – typical of the day, and the sort of thing that makes a reprinting of Cheeky for a contemporary market seem unlikely. Thankfully the readers’ gags all seem pretty innocent!

@Michael_Anden It was September 1978. He did a couple of other covers for Starlord, including this one from July of that same summer greatnewsforallreaders.com/blog/2018/7/8/…

@GNFARcomics What year was this? Must be the earliest Wakelin art I've ever seen. Nice out-there cover but very rough around the edges compared to later stuff he did for Ocean Software.

I’m not sure at what age of reader Starlord was targeted. The adverts within suggest perhaps 8-11 years old? If that’s right, it’s remarkable that it carried such mind-bending cover artwork as this (by Bob Wakelin). Little wonder it’s so fondly-remembered. Watch the stars!

@MostlyPrint Ha ha - I mean, I can see Big SL having actual need of a few Laser Specialists and Tank Commanders. Skateboard Strike Force, however ...?

Laser Specialist, me.

@GNFARcomics The launch 'brochure' for retailers & wholesalers was suitably imprecise! As I recall, the tv ads featured three lads approx 11/12 yrs old.
