Unseen Horrors!



Whilst sorting through some old artwork the other day I found this page I drew 21 years ago, - The Curse of Bumface! Where's it from? Was it ever published? I can't remember exactly, but from the school theme and the mild swearing I'd guess it was intended for a comic for older children. Acne perhaps? Possibly not. Maybe it was for a comic that didn't get past the 'dummy' stage? I know I definitely didn't do any more than this first episode, but I did revise the character as Butt-Face for Toxic ten years later in 2002.

If you can shed any light on it, please let me know. 

Meanwhile, I thought it'd be fun to create a mock up of the cover of the comic that features in the story, so yesterday I knocked this together. The never-before seen ('cos it never existed) cover to Horror of the Bum Spirit No.1 from March 1953. Click on images to see them larger.
