To be honest, I don't know if there were any Cheeky-related features in the Whoopee annuals and specials. I may research that and blog about it at some point, but I want to finish posting about the Whoopee and Whizzer and Chips weeklies first.

The other stories were often standard fare for IPC and the merger with Whizzer & Chips sedated 'Krazytown' - which really lived on in Whoopee! <br /><br />I look forward to returning to your posts (been reluctantly away from collecting for a few years!) - meanwhile, I was wondering about any final appearances of Cheeky strips in any of the later Whoopee specials/annuals?<br />John Gilheanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01928060511317526673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8214345292716209353.post-36631427779279440652019-10-10T19:30:25.297+01:002019-10-10T19:30:25.297+01:00I would have had to do a whole lot more work on th...I would have had to do a whole lot more work on this blog if that had been the case!Niblethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09073399687897131919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8214345292716209353.post-57487267326509220232019-10-10T19:28:56.720+01:002019-10-10T19:28:56.720+01:00It was worth shelling out for the comic that week....It was worth shelling out for the comic that week.

It would presumably still have been a three- or four-panel job due to space reasons. Who knows, such a double-dose might even have spurred unenlightened readers to write in saying, “This Cheeky lad’s a laugh, why not give him his own comic?” And then where’d we have been?STEPHEN ARCHERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01891283612737580789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8214345292716209353.post-5021637497357131082019-10-09T23:11:56.938+01:002019-10-09T23:11:56.938+01:00the cheeky strips were funny to the end...liked th...the cheeky strips were funny to the end...liked the snail one!!! eek!Peter Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02932925408386855040noreply@blogger.com
