Nigel Edwards' Cheeky Christmas

In this blog I have barely mentioned Cheeky's life as a member of The Krazy Gang, who made their debut in the first issue of Krazy just over a year before the toothy funster's own comic was launched. When Krazy came to an end, the Gang's adventures (still including Cheeky) continued in Whizzer and Chips.

This festive frolic, from the Christmas 1982 issue of Whizzer and Chips (appropriately dated 25 December) and illustrated by Nigel Edwards, suggests that Cheeky was a published author, and that he had romantic feelings towards his fellow gang member, Liz (I hope Louise didn't find out).

The story makes reference to Bloggs' shop, the main setting of Whizzer and Chips' Open All Hours-inspired strip, Store Wars.
