Request-a-Scan: Spitting Image - The Book.

[Gagh]

It's 1988, and a satirical puppet show, Spitting Image, is one of the most popular shows on the TV in the UK. This book features some of the type of humour from that show. It has also been in my possession since I was 11 years old.

There are 92 pages in the book. The first 10 requests will be scanned in to the delight of nobody, and on unpopular demand. I will start you off with their version of TransFormers - pencilled by the same artist who drew many of the Marvel UK TransFormers comics, Lee Sullivan.

It's 24 year-old satire, dude!



To help out in understanding this:

Sir Alastair Burnet

The satirical TV puppet show, Spitting Image, portrayed Sir Alastair as a cringing, fawning Royalist ("lick, lick, smarm, smarm"), forever trying to suck up to the nearest available member of the Royal Family and the satirical magazine Private Eye referred to him as 'Arslicker Burnet'.

I only remember those guys from the more than a little creepy Phil Collins video. Shit gave me nightmares...
