It's that time of year again when you can ridicule that brainless bully Tom Thug by putting him at the top of your tree, with him wearing a pretty dress and fairy wings. Here's my activity page from the 1987 Christmas issue of Oink!

I think it's the first time I've seen Tom Thug officially credited as a skinhead in your artwork - so that's what he was, wasn't he ? Of course he was a bully and dumb as hell, so nobody would see him as a role model - still it took some guts from both you and Oïnk to include a skinhead to star in a comic strip. You can't get more eighties than this ! I'm wondering if he was eating Weetabix for breakfast.
ReplyDeleteYep, he was always intended to be a skinhead. I made reference to it a couple of times I think as well as this one. The shaved head, braces, boots... it was all there.
