Rock Around the Crock
Saturday Legion Loonies.
I had a set of scans from the 1976-2012 newspaper strip Crock. Created by Brent Parker, for his Wizard of Id assistant Bill Rechin, the writing was soon taken over by Don Wilder. After Wilder died in 2008 Rechin wrote it himself. The strip is set smewhere in the desert in North Africa and is based on the Foreign Legion Movie Beau Geste. It follows the Hart/Parker/Walker school of newspaper comics in having a strong set of diverse and funny characters as it's base. Never top of the bill, but always worth a chuckle.

Crock? OK, I've heard of him. But you got comics in there about a strip called "Conchy". What? Never heard of it.
Conchy is an a seperate post. Some must have been saved wrongly. Conchy is recommended, though.
