Buster (Comic)

Buster was a long-running British comic (28 May 1960 - 4 January 2000) which carried a mixture of humour and adventure strips, although the latter genre would become a rarer occurrence as the comic went on. The title character, whose strip appeared on the front cover, was Buster Capp, who was originally stated to be the son of Andy Capp and wore a similar flat cap in the early years to reinforce the connection. In its later years, most of it consisted of reprints from either Buster itself or one of the many comics that merged with it over the comic's 40 year run, 13 in total. Throughout all the issues, it was never revealed what Buster had under his cap, until the final issue, when he took it off to reveal the same hairstyle that Dennis the Menace has.

Absorbed titles

As occurred with other British comics such as The Dandy, many other comic books merged with Buster over the years and some of their characters appeared in the comic. In addition, another comic called BVC (Big Value Comic) appeared for a short period in 1995 as a sister publication, followed by Buster Classics in 1996.
