Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories

Got hold of the Annual - thanks again for pointing that out. Bad news though - we've been working through the comics with the Puzzler stories and hit on a gap in the collection which is down to my appalling record keeping - there is still one missing issue - 22 Jan 1972. We only need the Puzzler sto...

Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories

I'd even be grateful for scans of just the story pages at this stage - and would happily pay or make a charitable donation to complete the story. I will still buy the issues when I see them for sale as well.

Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories

Good idea - don't have all the dates to hand at the moment but I know I am missing episode one of 'Pursuit' which was on 2nd January 1971 - that one is fairly key to the whole thing!!

Yes, that's the plan, with my son who was seven when we started this quest and will be 10 next month.
Sadly completion still seems like a long way off - those last 6 editions / episodes could take ages to find :-(

Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories

Two years on from starting this thread I am now only missing six editions in the run of Pursuit/Revenge of the Puzzler! The main problem is that specific issues are getting harder to come by!

Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories

A year on from my original post we are making good progress with the collection - over half way there. What is the etiquette with regard to PDFs? of individual pages from comics? I don't think I am going to be able to complete the Puzzler story collection that quickly so would like to fill in some g...

Re: Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories

Thank you all very much everyone for taking the time to reply and also to look up the dates. Much appreciated. I did not know about the 1973 annual so that's a nice easy one to tick off. The merger with Knockout does appear to be the end point for the adventure. There were six villains taking their ...

Whizzer and Chips - Puzzler stories

New to the forum! I have recently started collecting Whizzer and Chips and am focusing on the period covering the two serials, "Pursuit of the Puzzler" and "Revenge of the Puzzler". I have searched the forum but cannot see the answers to the following: Can anyone tell me who drew these stories? Also...
