somebody has posted a great introduction to the long running Scottish Sunday comic page titled Oor Wullie. I haven't seen it for a long long time, but Wullie always began and ended each week's story sitting on a bucket. in one of my own things I drew myself on Wullie's bucket, but nobody ever mentioned getting the reference.

What a fun little guy! Great accent.
I like the instruments panel
¡Hi, Eddie!
Now we get it.

Take care

Glad you liked my intro to "Oor Wullie"! It was going to be him or "The Broons", but I couldn't find source material as easily! :)
Next up, I think it's time America met the PROPER "Dennis the Menace" (as in "and Gnasher") and "Desperate Dan", no? :)
something occurred to me. Neither of us mentioned Dudley D. Watkins, the author of Oor Wullie

And, yes, Keepsakes, maybe I should have used "the artist" instead of "the creator", but I do understand that Dudley D. Wattkins shares both conditios,
Well, Eddie, once again: thanks for squandering your narratives in this blog.
Cuídate.
Well, the Eagle Awards are accepting nominations, and I think rather than give the Roll of Honour to another contemporary artist, we should be using it to recognise giants of the past. So I've set up a Facebook campaign to Nominate Dudley D. Watkins for an Eagle Award. Anyone want to join? Invite your friends!
