The slap-up feed!

The 'slap-up feed' has been a traditional image in British comics since the beginning, often as a reward for a good deed. It stems back to the days of poverty (and, later, rationing) when a big meal was considered to be a special treat. It's still used in comics for comedic purposes and here's a detail of a panel I drew for a future issue of Toxic, with Kid Zombie stuffing his face with Pie and Chip Sarnies. As he's already dead he doesn't need to worry about his health, but you can see what happens next in Toxic No.297 when it comes out later next month.
