Mr Men in the Daily Mirror

Post by Andrew Edwards on Thu Jan 28, 2010 5:53 pm

Hi everyone

Does any one have any information on, or even copies of, this comic strip that appeared in the Daily Mirror during the late 70s and 80s. I remember it as a child and would love to find out more about it. Thanks!

I remember the strip, which I think was by Roger Hargreaves himself, but I've no examples of it. I'd actually forgotten it existed until you mentioned it...

I think you're right - I'm sure it was by Hargreaves. My main memory of it is a recurring joke involving two worms, with one having an inferiority complex - something I had to have explained to me, being only 5 or 6 at the time..!
