These guys would have been in their 20s or early 30s when those pictures were taken, but some of them look so old. I suppose players in those days lived on a diet of fish suppers, Tartan Special and Capstan Full Strength. 18 hours ago, UsedToGoToCentralPark said: Star Wars I quite liked DC Thompson's Starblazer comics, they were in the same format as Commando but were sci-fi themed. They usually involved some kind of intergalactic piracy or whatever. 17 hours ago, jagfox BLM said: My first 200AD issue. I used to collect them up to about prog 500. Rogue Trooper was pretty cool. I've always hoped that someone would make a film or TV series about him. Edited November 22, 2020 by tongue_tied_danny 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Ferrino Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Coming to think of it I don’t think I’ve ever bought a comic. I’m not weird as I think I am. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shavers weekly was Edinburgh and the electric Soup glasgow. I've still got some old Electric Soups. Editor and artist Frank Quietly went on to be quite a big deal in the US and had an exhibition in the Kelvingrove a couple of years ago There's a pic of some Meadowbank fans who were banned from the Stadium by Blobby Hunter peeking in from Marionville Road and one of them has the Shaver's Weekly in his back pocket... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smut being another I think one of the rip offs, Zit, had a football column called "Put some snow on it" (in celebration of the long ball tactic). Whenever Edinburgh City are fannying about with the ball (which is quite often) I tend to shout that. Most of it was shite but I liked a strip called "Paper cut Pete" a psycho who cut up people with a bit of paper. "Swishy Swishy" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
