reboot 23...

Another two reboots No.20 and 21 from 1971
No 21 is an original of a scan I was sent by cheekydog, although not as big as I have been scanning, it is bigger than the previously reduced copy, and I think worth having.

Strips: Crowther in Trouble, Prize Idiots!,
Please Sir!, Timeslip, Voyage to the Bottom
of The Sea, Freewheelers and Bright's Boffins.

Reboot No.21, on to the strips...

The reboot continues, here we go with the strip issues, because I'm not scanning the full issues, I'm going to try as much as possible to upload the strip only issues in two's, I'll get through them quicker that way.  So here we go with No.s 2 and 3 from 71.

Cover: Ed 'Stewpot' Stewart.

Strips: Crowther in Trouble, Freewheelers,

At last...reboot No.20

here at last is the final full Issue, except...it isn't strictly full.  It is the very last Look-in from 1994, and is the only one I have from that year for now.  The missing pages are posters, so every readable page is there.

Next we start on the strip only issues that are already available, so we will go through them and super-size them too, but for now enjoy the remaining full issue, No.10 from 1994...



12th March 1994 - No.10

Cover: Mark Owen.

Strips: Chuck Rock, Scooby-Doo
and Garfield.

Reboot No.19...

Here is the penultimate reboot full issue, this is from 1993, and it's No.20.  Does anyone know where 'Mac' and 'Justin Gibbs' came from?, I do not remember these two strips as TV series or games, and can find nothing on the internet about them.  So I am wondering were these just original strips?...

'Chuck Rock' was based on a successful computer game of the period, in case you were wondering.

enjoy...


22nd May 1993 - No.20

Cover: Take That and Mr. Blobby.

Strips: Mac, Scooby Doo, Chuck Rock,
Justin Gibbs and His Massive Fibs and
Garfield.

Reboot No.18...

We skip to 1992 now, the 1991 issue was originally a large issue anyway, so does not need a reboot.  You can still get it here...

9th March 1991 - No.10
(Thanks again to cheekydog)

So here now is 1992 - No.13, with the free door hanger, so you need
never be disturbed again...!!!...
