Get your Tough Guy digital comic!

Two years ago I compiled all my Tough Guy superhero parody strips into a 32 page digital PDF comic and it's still available if you missed it! You can read it on your phone, tablet or desktop computer.

As I'm not selling any original art at present due to the Christmas backlog, and not doing a lot of mainstream comics work, any little income is very much appreciated.

Tough Guy and Scruffy collects all 12 episodes of the strip from the short-lived Triffik! weekly of 1992 plus a few bonus features and a new Christmas story into a 32 page digital comic. The humour is similar to Combat Colin; daft comedy-adventure and even dafter villains, and the strips are suitable for all ages. 

You can read or download the comic at the following link:

TOUGH GUY Digital Comic still available!

Still available to download! The 32 page Tough Guy and Scruffy comic, collecting one of my vintage comic strips. 

Here's the info...

Way back in 1992 I'd created a superhero humour strip called Tough Guy and Scruffy for a new weekly anthology comic entitled Triffik! Sadly, traditional weeklies were on their way out and the comic folded after just 12 issues. Now I've collected my stories into a new digital comic and you can download it anywhere in the world today!

It's fair to say that most of you have probably never seen or heard of this strip before as Triffik's existence was so brief. Or perhaps you were amongst the readers who managed to catch it over those few weeks? Either way, I hope you enjoy the strips, which are intended for an all-ages audience.

Tough Guy and Scruffy No.1 is a 32 page digital comic including all 12 strips from 1992 plus extra features and a new festive back cover strip bringing our heroes into the present day. I have no plans to produce a print version so this comic is exclusively digital. 

You can view and download it from the following link:

Tough times call for Tough Guy (and Scruffy). Digital download.

This hasn't been a good year, but I'll go into that at a later date. One thing I created 12 months ago to bring in a few extra pennies was the Tough Guy and Scruffy digital comic. A 32 page collection of one of my long forgotten strips from the pages of the short lived Triffik! weekly of 1992. And there's an all new Christmas episode on the last page!

You can download it at the following link anywhere in the world to read on your device / PC...

ZOWIE! New comic for a good cause

Tim Quinn and Liverpool Heartbeat have produced a new 24 page comic entitled Zowie! The physical comic is given to patients at Manchester Children's Hospital, hopefully to cheer up the kids and transport their minds to a place of fun and imagination.

Several comics creators were asked to volunteer some material for the comic and I submitted a two page Tough Guy and Scruffy strip, which had previously appeared in Triffik! comic over 30 years ago. 

Other contributors include Nigel Parkinson, Steve Parkhouse, Russ Leach, Dicky Howett and more providing previously-published strips. 

The print edition of Zowie! is only for the kids in hospital, but if you want a digital version for free you can find it at this link:

TOUGH GUY No.1 Reviewed

My thanks to Richard Bruton of the website Comicon.Com for reviewing my digital comic Tough Guy and Scruffy. Here's one quote from him:

"It’s packed with silly villains, ridiculous situations, stupid moments, and most importantly lots of laughs for you – and jelly. There’s a fair bit of jelly."

They're back! TOUGH GUY AND SCRUFFY, the heroes you never knew you'd forgotten!

Way back in 1992 I'd created a superhero humour strip called Tough Guy and Scruffy for a new weekly anthology comic entitled Triffik! Sadly, traditional weeklies were on their way out and the comic folded after just 12 issues. Now however, for its 30th anniversary, I've collected my stories into a new digital comic and you can download it anywhere in the world today!

It's fair to say that most of you have probably never seen or heard of this strip before as Triffik's existence was so brief. Or perhaps you were amongst the readers who managed to catch it over those few weeks? Either way, I hope you enjoy the strips, which are intended for an all-ages audience. 

Incidentally, this is the comic that I was going to call Barmy Comix No.2 but then thought it'd be better just focusing on the characters as the comic's title.

Tough Guy and Scruffy No.1 is a 32 page digital comic including all 12 strips from 1992 plus extra features and a new festive back cover strip bringing our heroes into the present day. I have no plans to produce a print version so this comic is exclusively digital. 

You can view and download it from the following link and although the cover price is voluntary, times are very tough (pun intended) at present so may I ask you to please be kind enough to donate £3 to me by PayPal at lew.stringer@BTopenworld.com
