New Year... 1996!

 

Here's the Tom Thug page I did exactly 30 years ago for the New Year issue of Buster for 1996. This would be the last New Year theme Tom Thug story I'd do, as Buster went all-reprint after the 9th July issue of that year. 

I've just noticed an error. I'd forgotten to put the red checks on Tom's Dad's shirt after the first panel. Not that he always wore the same shirt, so perhaps not many readers noticed, but I should have picked up on it before I sent it off for publication. Anyway, my apologies. Better late than never, even after three decades! 

Happy New Year!

Did Buster reprint some of the your Tom Thug Strips you did for Oink years back? I Had This Wondering for Sometime.

Happy new year! I don't like bicycling in snow, and here is another reason!

No, they didn't consider the Oink strips suitable for Buster readers.
