The Beano #1287
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn this classic slice of British comic charm from The Beano #1287, Biffo’s mischievous streak takes a delightfully absurd turn when a mix-up at the general store leads him to plant electric light bulbs in Buster’s garden—only to watch in amusement as Buster stumbles upon what looks like lamps growing out of the ground. With Dave Jenner’s sharp, expressive art bringing the gag to life and Dudley D. Watkins’ iconic cover capturing the scene’s playful spirit, it’s a timeless bit of nonsense that’s as clever as it is silly.
