I'll never forget the Readers Tips page.
Ladies, don't throw away your used tampons. Simply dip them in glitter and hang them from your Christmas Tree, for inexpensive but effective decorations! I laughed at that for years ![]() Peeled banana skins make ideal sun hats for starfish

Saw a man of about 55 reading it on the station platform this morning. I felt embarrassed for him.

I love 'Roy's Dad Of The Rovers' this month. Top notch one-off.

Viz post some classics on their fb page

Haven't bought it for years, but VERY fond memories of it 'back in the day', ie late eighties/early nineties. Paul Whicker The Tall Vicar was genius - a handful of appallingly drawn tales of a corrupt, drunken and violent clergyman. Although the best single strip I ever saw was Roger Mellie doing Countdown, which he somehow managed to confuse with Bullseye...
Roger Mellie: Hello, and welcome tooooooooo Countdown! Now, would the first contestant like to step up to the oche please. (Contestant guided to centre stage by baffled-looking Tom, the producer) Roger: Right then, have you got your darts? Contestant: ? Roger: Oh for F**K'S sake Tom, he hasn't bought his arrows!!!! Probably need to see the strip in context, but can't find a scan at the moment, sorry... |

Probably need to see the strip in context, but can't find a scan at the moment, sorry... I've been reading since the early 90s (thanks to my uncle ) and I still buy it every month. It's not as good some months as it is others, but I still enjoy it. I love the regulars (and I miss Spoilt B&st&ard and Modern Parents not featuring much), but everyone has their favourites. I never really got the point of Billy the Fish, but there's a couple of newer artists - like the one that does the We Buy Gold strips and the one that does all the Biblical strips that I really like.

Drunken Bakers is one i generally dont get. Although a few months back (it was about a drunk woman who gave BJs for booze, then fell in a river and drowned) as it was so ridiculously bleak, it had me in fits of laughter

Eee I haven't read Viz since the late 80's/early 90's! I loved Finbar Saunders, The one with the big testicles and Johnny Fartpants.! Oh and a Roger Mellie! What were the ones called, something like Modern Parents, but the son didn't like them modern??

The first thing I always turn to these days is 8 Ace.
So predictable, but so bloody funny... 'Here's £1.49 for the medicine. DON'T spend it on Ace'

The strips I never find funny are Roger Mellie, The Pathetic Sharks, Sid The Sexist, 8 Ace and Billy The Fish. My favourites used to be Spoilt Bastard, Modern Parents and especially Millie Tant, because I used to know a girl very much like that
![]() A special mention for Thieving Gypsy Bastards ![]() I tend to prefer the letters, the adverts and the "special offers". http://i967.photobucket.com/albums/a.../jadediana.jpg |

I liked Roger Mellie, Lol I only bought it occasionaly as I am 5ft nothing and it was always top shelf, hehe, I bought Zit more often! I was going to buy it as a read for the train from aberdeen to home the other day, but it was 3.90 or such, so I got a private eye and the indy sunday version.
Best thing from Viz publications has to be the profanosaurus..mine is on perpetual loan, like a daft toilet chain mail..Meh I should have charged a fee! Currently its with a friend of a friend in Elgin..or so I heard.. Welp my charity shop has got it in..I might buy it for a quid save it from the black world of books doom station!
