This simple strip was about Ronnie Runner and his adventures at Sports School where everything was done sportswise. Students trained for every imaginable sport and sometimes even had combined lessons, such as cycling and nature study, geography and trampoline or a history lesson on the bowling green to learn about Sir Francis Drake who played bowls before sinking the Spanish armada. The comedy of the strip was of the simple variety and so was the artwork.
The
one-pager was part of SHAKE section and appeared in SHIVER AND SHAKE issues 51
– 79 (missing issues 71 and 77 in between). I’d appreciate if someone could
confirm the artist’s name for me.
