welcome and enjoy!

Hi and welcome to my blog about comics from other people’s childhood! It is dedicated primarily to British humour comics of the 60s and 70s. The reason they are not from my childhood is simply because I didn’t live in the UK back then (nor do I live there now). I knew next to nothing about them until fairly recently but since then I’ve developed a strong liking for the medium and amassed a large collection, including a number of complete or near complete sets. My intention is to use this blog as a channel for sharing my humble knowledge about different titles, favourite characters and creators as I slowly research my collection.

QUICK TIP: this blog is a sequence of posts covering one particular comic at a time. The sequence follows a certain logic, so for maximum results it is recommended that the blog is read from the oldest post up.

FOOTBALL THEME IN BRITISH HUMOUR COMICS TO CELEBRATE EURO 2012 (DAY 1)


I have planned a series of 24 daily posts from 8th June till 1st July to celebrate EURO 2012. I intend to trawl through my collection of British comics for gems of football-themed humour strips and post them here without much comment, two or three strips a day. I am sure you know there’s plenty to choose from and I hope you’ll enjoy reading them just as much as I enjoy searching for them. 

The football posts will run in parallel with my reviews of COR!! strips and I’ll do my best to make sure that the new theme on Kazoop!! doesn’t interfere with the regular rhythm of one COR!! post every two days.  Enjoy!
