BILLY BUNTER first appeared in text story form in The MAGNET in 1908, but it wasn't until 1940 that he became a comic strip character in KNOCKOUT comic, drawn for the first nine episodes by C. H. CHAPMAN, who'd been the last artist to illustrate the Magnet stories. After a few other artists had been tried, FRANK MINNITT drew the strip until his death in 1958. REG PARLETT then took over the artistic reins, continuing after Knockout was merged into VALIANT in 1961.
The strip appeared in Valiant for many years, even after it subsumed SMASH! and then TV21, but I'm unsure whether they were new stories or only reprints. The last comic I remember seeing Bunter in was either WHIZZER & CHIPS or BUSTER - or maybe even both, as they were merged in 1990. The strip you see here is from the 1971 VALIANT & SMASH! Summer Special, but it may well have been a reprint, though originally it would've been published in b&w, not colour.
