In New Funnies #3 (1940), a 6d comic from the early days of British comics, young Alfie’s ordinary hike takes a bizarre turn when he emerges from a muddy field—only to discover he’s suddenly heavier than he was before. Written, drawn, inked, and lettered by Harry Banger, the story blends whimsy and mild absurdity in a quiet, grounded moment of surprise. The cover by John Woods captures the damp, chaotic energy of the journey, setting the tone for a tale that’s as peculiar as it is memorable.
