Grew up with Lucky Luke comic books, if that counts:

I was about to write something like 'kids of today, eh? They'll never get to enjoy such (Franco-Belgian) genius.' But apparently Lucky Luke's on Playstation. 🙄

My wife claimed, through years of laughter, that my strip on our wedding night was classic...does that count as a classic comic strip?

Totally with the OP - I loved the Numbskulls.

And I was also a Dennis the Menace Fan Club Member.

Classic and used for a few years to provide us with drunken hilarity.
I was never allowed comics as a little 'un, might explain a lot. 🙁

I was a lover of The Numbskulls too and was young enough to think it was a comic strip documentary.

Can't remember the comic but there was a strip in a comic probably very late 60s or early 70's with a WWI German Flying ace who had giant bats in the back of his Tri-plane - any ideas what it was called? Probably Something Baron or Baron Something as a play on Red Baron?

I loved the Numskulls too.. I found a love for Vaughn Bode's stuff from the 1960s and 70s when I got a bit older..

I once enjoyed a long chat with Leo Baxendale, who created the Bash Street Kids, Minnie the Minx and Little Plum among many others. He was a very nice, modest chap (and still is I hope).

I've got a stack of Commandos about as tall as I am. But this was good as a kid and great as an adult
