BEANO’S BASH STREET KIDS ARTIST DAVID SUTHERLAND DIES

The artist behind the Beano's Bash Street Kids has died, aged 89.

David Sutherland was described as the "single most important illustrator in Beano history" by the editor of the children's comic.

Mr Sutherland, who was from Invergordon in the Highlands, spent more than 60 years with Beano and began illustrating the Bash Street Kids in 1962.

This is one of the reasons I enjoy Wales Comiccon - you get to meet the people who made childhood fun.

There are still tickets available, but not many! Check out the guests and get some tickets.
