In consecutive order, starting with Funny Wonder No.1045 from 1934. I believe this was drawn by Reg Parlett in his early days. (This is the international edition, which had an issue of Jester inside, but apart from the masthead it was the same as the UK edition.)
A few years later, in 1937, we have the Easter issue of Chips, with Weary Willie and Tired Tim drawn by Percy Cocking...
On to 1940 and it's Radio Fun with artwork by Reg Parlett...
Moving into the Sixties it's the Easter Bimbo with covers by Dudley Watkins...
Wham! from 1965 with Biff drawn by Graham Allen...
A year later, 1966, the Easter Smash! with a cover by Ron Spencer...
The Easter 1967 issue of The Beano, with Biffo by Dudley Watkins...
It's 1968 and the Easter Pow! cover is by Mike Higgs...
Journeying through time to 1989 it's Buster with art by Tom Paterson...
Finally, back in the present day it's the current issue of Beano with art by Nigel Parkinson...
...and the latest issue of The Phoenix with a cover that, unusually, is uncredited! (If you're out there, let me know who you are.)
After that brief time-trip through British comics history, I hope you all have a great break and a Happy Easter!
