UPDATED: Tiny Toon Adventures comic - 1994/5

 Here's one I'm filing under "I don't know much about this comic - so I'm recording it here in the hope that I'll be able to update this post in due course when more information comes to light".

This is not to be confused with the Marvel UK comic of the same name from 1992/3.

For this update I've added cover images for issues 11, 12, 13 and 14. 
So I've now 'extended' the known end date for this title from (my first ever post about it) from issue 6 to issue 14; this means we've also extended its life into 1995 but it's still undated and I still don't know when it ended.

Tiny Toon Adventures, issue #1, 65p, 1994
the ebay seller has this listed as being from 1994. The cover art is by Dave King.

In the comments attached to this post you'll see that Dave King says...
I can't recall how long this title lasted, though not for much longer I suspect. I can tell you it was published by Newsstand Publications and edited by James Hill and Brian M Clarke (both formerly of London Editions Magazines).

The Bradshaws...an' all that #2

London Editions are perhaps best known as publishers of comics that tied in with particular brands. I've looked (here) at some of their comics (Count Duckula; Centurions; Dreamstone).

The Bradshaws...an' all that has a website here where you can buy associated merchandise (but not this comic it must be said).

Wikipedia has this to say on the subject of The Bradshaws

The Bradshaws is a fictional family created and voiced by the comedian and musician Buzz Hawkins. The family was created for The Gary Davies Show with Gary Davies on Piccadilly Radio in 1983 when Hawkins wrote a poem about a family's day trip to Blackpool. This soon developed into a series. In 1986, Hawkins was made producer of The Phil Wood Show, on which he performed more Bradshaws material.

Hawkins would go on to sell cassettes of his Bradshaws episodes, which he still does to this day, as well as doing stand-up, acting and more. The Bradshaws series has been re-released as a 25 volume C.D. collection. The series has gained great popularity in the North and abroad. It has been said that some people still ask who the voice actors are even though all the characters are voiced by Hawkins.
Anyway, without further ado here it is - art is by John Geering, scripts by Mike Butcher and Brian M. Clarke

I looked at issue 1 here

This is issue 2 (of 2)

The Bradshaws...an' all that #1

London Editions are perhaps best known as publishers of comics that tied in with particular brands. I've looked (here) at some of their comics (Count Duckula; Centurions; Dreamstone).

The Bradshaws...an' all that isn't a TV tie-in comic, in fact it's all ne w material based on The Bradshaws - which has its own website here where you can buy associated merchandise (but not this comic it must be said).

Those involved are:
Editor - Mike Butcher
Scripts - Buzz hawkins
Artwork - John Geering
Design - Rob Sharp

Anyway, without further ado here it is - covers and first page of all the stories


This is issue 1 (of 2)

The Bradshaws an all that comic issue 1, London editions







Bian M Clarke commented on the Facebook post that he and Mike Butcher wrote the scrips. Each of the storied was based on an audio episode.
