The 12 1/2p Buytonic Boy from Whizzer And Chips. A strip that caused an entire generation to ask to try tonic water in the belief it would confer similar cut-price Steve Austin powers on them, only to recoil at its unwashed kitchen utensil-esque taste.
Watching Antenna TV, and they're showing an episode of Becker with Paul Dooley, who of course played Whizzer on ALF and Enabran Tain on DS9. He's 96 and still kicking. God bless him. One of the coolest voices in Hollywood.
achei legal terem resgatado ele, que eu conheci a uns meses atrás no volume 1 de visão e feiticeira escarlate Na época que eles acreditavam que os gemeos também eram filhos da Miss América e do whizzer, tornando os 3 irmãos (foi o retcon do retcon (que depois também sofreu retcon))
(but also it sort of is a childhood ambition fulfilled, Buster, whizzer and Chips and generally british humour comics were all part of my diet when I first read comics)
There was me just remembering that Buster, the titular character from Fleetway’s Buster comic, was supposedly Andy Capp’s son. Although that element must’ve been long phased out when I was reading it (up until it ‘merged’ with Whizzer & Chips and 75% of each issue became reprints of ‘70s strips).
Whizzer, the official superhero of Lasix!
WHIZZER HEY SUDDENLY IT ALL CAME CLEARRRR I SAID LETSSSS HAVE MY BAR MITZVAH HERE’
The Whizzer ran away from twin children because he was told his wife died. The Whizzer is somehow the worst Marvel father, without having any surviving kids.
