...and here's a later one, from the Christmas 1986 issue of Oink!...
A mistake at the printers left the speech balloons off the BANG! panel. |
Along with Tom Thug, Pete and his Pimple later moved over to Buster when the two comics merged in October 1988. In this episode, from May 1989, I put both characters into one strip...
A particular favourite was this illustration I did for the UKCAC '88 convention booklet. The original art was auctioned off for charity. I wonder where it is now?

Oh a new Pete and Tom strip! Well, new for me anyway! I only started with Oink at issue 14, so only one short fortnight after reading my first ever comic I was introduced to Pete, who remained a favourite all the way through Oink’s run. Good timing.
If you didn't follow Tom and Pete into Buster there's six months of Pete you missed and 8 years of new Tom Thug strips before it went reprint. :)
Oh I know! You've no idea how much I'd love to get my hands of those strips!!
