Does anyone know what happened to the Milton and Bradley stories that were done in the late eighties and early nineties? Who was the writer and artist?They were extremely funny and as yet I haven't been able to find a thing on them.

It was written by Alan McKenzie and the background to his writing for 2000AD might require a trip to Thrill-Power Overload.
if I went 'round saying I was an Emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

I've just got the Milton and Bradley pun (although its not really a pun).

Nope. I still haven't.

The Milton Bradley Company is an American game company established by Milton Bradley in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1860. In 1920, it absorbed the game production of McLoughlin Brothers, formerly the largest game manufacturer in the United States and in 1987 it purchased Selchow and Righter, makers of Parcheesi and Scrabble.

Milton Bradley was taken over by Hasbro, Inc., in 1984. Now wholly owned by Hasbro, it is still retained as one of Hasbro's brands, similar to the manner in which Parker Brothers is one of Hasbro's brands. It is a board game and sometimes video game publisher

Welcome Howler.
I thought Bradley was weird, in a good way.

Peace is a lie, there's only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.

Oh, so that's what MB stands for. I didn't know that.

Welcome to the board Mr.THE HOWLER.
Through the fish skulls and demonic membranes I see the future presented to me in caleidoscopic fashion by the great worm Crom on day release from the Chavy depths of Med City.
