Calculator Kid was among the strips from Cheeky Weekly still going strong in Whoopee! 3 years after the toothy funster's comic merged into it. In fact, commencing in Whoopee! dated 27 November 1982, Charlie and Calc began appearing in a spin-off feature, Calculator Corner, which sprang from the fertile mind of comics genius and puzzlemeister,
Jack Edward Oliver.
Early Calculator Corner strips included a cameo from one of Whoopee!'s comical crew, and in the 12 February 1983 issue, Jack gave us his version of the toothy funster (who at this stage was still hanging on in Whoopee! by the skin of his not inconsiderable teeth).
