'Ghostman Pat' [or similar title] was drawn by John Geering, and was the star attraction in 'Bog Paper' .

'Ghostman Bat and His Black and White Rat' was in It's Wicked, as patpending said a few posts back. I think everything in The Bog Paper was toilet/excrement orientated.

thanks for clearing that up Raven...these two titles appeared around the same time [1989] and were virtually interchangeable [qualitywise if not thematically, he said pretentiously]---though I did buy one copy of each.

I took the free false vampire teeth from IT'S WICKED out with me on a night down the town; the ladies were not suitably impressed, so the experiment was never repeated.

If only you'd applied the free tattoos from issue two. That would probably have won them over.

But being comic collecters we'd no doubt say: "Why don't you come back to my place and I'll show you my Big One" (Or add your own double meaning comic title eg Whoopee, Cracker etc.
