I knew I'd seen Rats somewhere before. Beezer Annual 2003, and I think NP was rushing ;)

Hmm. Beezer Book 1995 too by Vic Neill.

I think Hunt's done a good job. What does everyone else think?

I'd like to know too!

With The Three Bears back, and Les Pretends film reviews, perhaps the editor could bring back some other characters, like they used to do with the guest page.

I'm pretty certain that's David Parkin's artwork on the Three Bears. I don't remember seeing those strips before, so they could well be brand new!

The 3 bears are great.....it must be new....welcome back David P. a very good artist...........UPDATE..actually I think they are reprints from the early 90's.

Ratz is nice.....the artist is great at drawing dirt...pipes..shading

Pirates of the Caribeano is fun and original..

I used to like Storming Nora in the Beezer or it might have been the Dandy or Topper. But the stories were always with her dad and I didn't like that. It was probably written by the same person who did Diner Mo, as those stories were always with her dad. Boring .

Yeah, Stormin' Norma was in the Beezer by (I think) Trevor Metcalfe.
