Run
"Lost In Egypt"
12/9/81
– No.38
The boys are
stranded in Egypt, and have to find their way home, with precious little
help from the Look-in script writer.
"Horrible
Horoscope"
17/10/81
- No.43
The boys become the
target of Madme Ekava Square, a twisted Conductor, turned Horoscope
writer, who is jealous of anyone who makes it in the music business,
because she failed. She makes the boys’ tour bus crash and they have to
find another way to their concert in Bunsley.
(The
strip took a break to be replaced by the return of ‘Rock on Tommy! With
Cannon and Ball’ in the next issue)
2nd
Run
"Knight Dreams"
8/1/83
– No.2
Suggs dreams he has
been knighted by the Queen, and is convinced after reading a book on
dreams, that it is really going to happen. So he sets about making sure
he’ll be dressed right for the occasion.
"Madcap
Mayhem"
15/1/83
– No.3
Unable to come up
with any ideas for the strip this week, Suggs gets out his ‘Thinking cap’,
a madcap invention he bought in
California, which looks just like
a cardboard box with a dial? The box works but all the ideas aren’t what
the lads have in mind, or are too dangerous, so they have no choice but to
ring the Look-in editor and tell him.
"Wacky
Wishes"
22/1/83
– No.4
Lee decides to clean
the rehearsal room, when he polishes the speaker, out pops the ‘Genie of
the Amp’ (Groan), and he grants the lads three wishes…
"Find the Single"
29/1/83 – No.5
It seems that nobody
can get hold of the latest Madness single, Suggs sees a particularly upset
fan, and makes it his business to find out what has happened to all the
singles, and to get the fan a copy.
"Prove You're Mad?"
5/2/83
– No.6
The Nutty boys are
arrested by the trade description people, who accuse them of deceiving
people, because they say the boys are not mad enough to call themselves
Madness. The boys set out to prove otherwise…
"A
Day at the Zoo"
12/2/83
– No.7
The boys’ video game
machine is on the blink, so they have to do something else, so off they go
to the zoo, where they get more than they bargained for.
