Nutty

Nutty was a British comic that ran for 292 issues from 16 February 1980 to 14 September 1985, when it merged with The Dandy. Published by D. C. Thomson & Co. Ltd, it was an attempt to create a more lively and chaotic comic compared to many on sale at the time. Its strips included:
  • Bananaman as its main strip and by far its most popular. Drawn by John Geering, survived Dandy merger
  • Cannonball Kid, "He's Football Crazy", similar to a Beano strip called Ball Boy
  • Cuddles, a naughty baby. Drawn by Barry Appleby and later moved to Hoot

  • Peter Pest, a boy who constantly interrupted his sister's attempt to be alone with her boyfriends. Survived Dandy merger
  • Pig Tales, a family of pigs, similar to a Beano strip called The Three Bears
  • Ron Brown's Schooldays, the adventures of a group of schoolkids. The title was a play on Tom Brown's Schooldays
