Collection of 70 Issues plus Holiday Specials and Annuals! Buster was a long-running British comic (28 May 1960 – 4 January 2000) which carried a mixture of humour and adventure strips, although the former increasingly replaced the latter.The title character, whose strip usually appeared on the front cover, was Buster himself. He was originally billed as Buster: Son of Andy Capp , the lead character of the Daily Mirror newspaper strip, and wore a similar flat cap to reinforce the connection. In its final years, the comic mostly consisted of reprints from either Buster itself or from one of the many comics which had merged with it over its 40-year run, of which there were a staggering fourteen in total. Throughout all the years, it was never revealed what Buster had under his cap, until the very last issue, when he took it off to reveal the same hairstyle that Dennis the Menace has. Although an interesting attempt to round off the strip, the joke didn't really work, since it didn't take into account the fact that for the first 25 years of the run the cap covered only part of Buster's hair. This compilation totals 70 various non-consecutive issues from various periods in its long run. Also Includes: The Buster Book for 1962, 1966 and 1974 as well as the 1969 and 1974 Holiday Specials. Can be used on a variety of platforms (PC
