The Saint TV Tornado strips

Post by Blakescrewe »

I've been trying to find the names of the artists who drew those strips in 1967 and 1968 but can't locate any info, and how many Saint strips appeared in the comic too? Thanks.

Hi Blakescrewe.
I believe the artist for the Saint comic strip in Tornado was Vicente Alcazar.
I'm uncertain how many Saint strips there were but the series ran from issue 15-88.
It then continued with the merger of TV21 and TV Tornado from issues 192 - 242.
The strip was renamed "Meet the Saint" and continued in TV21 and Joe 90 from issues 1-36 and then TV21 37-52.
I hope this helps.

Always a pleasure, I'm a massive fan of Leslie Charteris.
