71 New Comics by Schoolkids

In Kev F's Comic Art Masterclasses in schools and art centres nationwide (and beyond, in the past year he's taught from Dublin to Toulouse) he draws on his 25 years as a comic creator for The Beano, Marvel, Doctor Who et al to teach pupils how to write and draw comic strips. Everyone takes home a comic containing the group's strips and a caricature by Kev. The titles of these comics are invented by the pupils in the group, here are the 71 most recent comics, in ten batches...

10 - Floating Cactus of Doom & other comics, from pupils in Falkirk, Birmingham, Devon and Cardiff

 9 - Reverse Psychology and Super Dooper Pooper Loo, comics by pupils from Borehamwood, Taunton, Kings Lynn, Croydon and Guildford.

8 - Curse Of The Singing Go Compare Man & other comics, by kids in Kent and Henley

7 - Grandpa From The North Goes Fudge Cake Berserk & more, by pupils from London and Salisbury
6 - The Living Moon Pie, Supergranny Sweatpants and Under Pans - hilarious titles by pupils from Cambridgeshire, Glasgow, Croydon, Largs and Henley On Thames.
