I have always enjoyed the little one page stories that appeared in the prog over the years. Sooner or Later is a favourite,  Dash Decent and Bonjo are good fun too. Captain Klep wasn't great, but his run in Tornado was great fun when O'Neill was doing it. The SinDex ones were good that were reprinted in the Meg, anyone know if there is any more?

Id like to see more of these especially with the Droid Life doing well. Robo Hunter, More Tales of Mega City One, Bec and Kawl could be good.

Would you like the see one pagers in the prog, and if so what character and creator?

Exqueeze me? The strip which features the second greatest pun of all time!?*

Those Alien Invasions Henry Flint did were brilliant as well.

There's a pretty good one pager, I think it's called "The Invaders", about aliens who come to Earth and get mistaken for guests at a fancy dress party. I think it's in the prog somewhere between the late 200s and the early 300s.

Hmmm, at No. 2, an otter you can't defuse?
And No. 1. ... the Slavers of Drule?

They weren't strips but I loved Mick Austin's "Things to Look Forward To" series of posters that ran in the late 80s/early 90s. Some of them were hilarious.

Although I have much fondness for "A farewell to Armz?", the winner simply has to be "No snecks, please, we're brutish!"

I quite liked "Xen and the art of Middenface Maintenance" myself...

Agreed - I'd have those back in a jiffy. I prefer one pagers to be one offs so to speak, rather than from established series.

To tell the truth, you can all get screwed.

Those Mick Austin "Things to Look Forward to" were cracking too. 

I'd be up for a one-pager of various types to be honest.
