Buster comic covers from 1988 drawn by Tom Paterson
Jan-March 1988
Here will be a whole year of 1988 and what fun...eye catching covers they are...
The paper and ink got better at this time (started 30th May 1987) which made it more stronger the colours and lines.

The Buster covers of that period were coloured by John Burns, nephew of the comic artist John M. Burns.
