Apparently (I don't follow football) Robert Snodgrass plays for West Ham. Also (I do follow Star Trek) Melinda Snodgrass wrote a bunch of episodes for Star Trek The Next Generation, among many other TV shows.<br />As a regular reader of Krazy Komic when I was a kid, her name in the credits didn't half give me a shock.SochghajwI'https://www.blogger.com/profile/01249909184826760204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7782966666136502802.post-90333617367078582362015-11-25T02:58:50.614-08:002015-11-25T02:58:50.614-08:00I was initially puzzled by this article as I thoug...I was initially puzzled by this article as I thought our mutual friend NIblet had covered the fact that there was no Christmas Cheeky for 1977, until I realized that it was the following year. Industrial action affected it and at least two other comics, 2000AD and Whoopee. 13/1/79 of the latter is its New Year issue and although there was a 6/1 issue no characters talk about resolutions etc. You can do your own research on NIblet’s blog to see how the Christmas strips were reused. Enjoy – but if you’re like me be ready to grumble a bit.STEPHEN ARCHERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01891283612737580789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7782966666136502802.post-1803804841371727282015-11-24T11:25:07.792-08:002015-11-24T11:25:07.792-08:00Ooh!

Thanks for the memories, but after seeing that final panel, it has got to be asked. Why do all comic parents look like brother and sister?ExtremelyCreamyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12114111916306480307noreply@blogger.com
