Watched this tonight on BBC2, and found the industry aspect very educational. I've never been a great fan of English Comics, with the sole exception of 2000AD, as it really shows how little the publishers thought of making any kind of intelligent, moral or social, story to it's audience. It's very much like the carry on films, entertaining the masses, whilst the middle classes look back in fondness at their only commonality with the working classes.. again being of neither (immigrant class I am) I find it very toilet humour. That said, some of the Artwork is great!
Two more parts on the following next Saturdays!!
