Oldie but goodie...
Since "Catholic" Ted has come out and endorsed fellow socialist Barack Obama, I thought it might be fitting to pull out and dust off an old Ted Kennedy cartoon from a while back.

Whoopee!! number 1 part 2
Its funny the free gift was a skull head squirt ring. So Whoopee had a bit of fun horror in it already before it merged with Shiver and Shake. With strips like The Ghost Train, Evil eye and King Arthur and his Frights of the round table. Ironic two fun horror strips didn't make it in the merge...The Ghost Train and King Arthur and his Frights of the round table. The artists Brian Walker 'The Ghost Train' now drew Scream Inn and Robert Nixon 'King Arthur' now drew Frankie Stein for Whoopee and Shiver and Shake.

Whoopee!! number 1
This is my favourite IPC comic with many great characters. Here is the 1st issue and what a read 40 pages for 5p in 1974 (the year I was born!). The cover was unusual with the character Evil Eye written in bold (would it put off parents?) and Ad Lad. The comic was in the same shape as Cor!! Thin and many pages. You see the start of Bumpkin Billionaire's...Toy Boy which stay throughout Whoopee's run and beyond in Whizzer and chips. Whoopee!! lasted for 11 years...and I felt sad when it merged with Whizzer and chips in 1985.
More to come...
