Wes Slade

Wes Slade is a British newspaper comic strip created by writer/artist George Stokes, first appearing in 1979 as a single-issue release from Express Newspapers. The series follows the adventures of its titular character, a rugged and resourceful hero navigating action-packed scenarios. Stokes' distinctive artwork and storytelling defined the strip's tone, making it a notable entry in the UK's newspaper comic tradition. Though brief in its initial run, Wes Slade remains a curious artifact of late-1970s British comics.
