Oh, and Victorian Dad was good too. 'Gather round family, we must have a meeting to make plans for our trip to the seaside.'

'That's nice, dear.'

(One last surfacing before I come back from vacation.) Search the archives, friends. They ARE there. Old threads DO exist. The archives love you, please love them back.

To be fair, Viz isn't the easiest thing to search for.

Oh, sorry - I thought the ILX search didn't allow words under four characters.

I see - it works for title search but not for the full text one. Maybe it should say that on the search page.

A good suggestion! Mention it on the mod request board, plz.

Hmmm, I may celebrate payday by buying a copy after work. Last month's 'Oor Morrissey' made me chuckle.

"Oor Morrisey" was also teh funny yeh.

Morris Day was always my favourite

The best thing about breaking up with Joe is that I never, EVER have to read Viz, (or rather, have it read at me) ever again.

my favourite bits of viz were always the pastiches of old Dandy / Beano strips like Billy The Cat or Black Bag just because they obviously knew and loved the source material. and Tex Wade, Frontier Accountant.

Simon Donald, one of the creators, regularly contributes to radcliffe's programs on radio2 (this Monday, for instance).

do a lot of the viz writers also work for the dandy and beano?

― dog latin (dog latin), Friday, 23 July 2004 07:57 (nineteen years ago) link

DC Thomson have threatened Viz with legal action once or twice, I think, so probably not.

They do share cartoonists, or at least they used to. This was talked about on one ot the other threads.

I'm definitely a puerile degenerate but just nearly died at this
