Buster Capp

Buster, originally drawn by Bill Titcombe, first appeared in Buster #1 on May 28th 1960. He is supposedly 'Buster Capp, son of newspaper strip character Andy Capp and his wife Flo, though the alleged connection was dropped in the comic after just a few months and not really referenced again until the Buster comic's final years. Buster, who was never seen without his trademark cap (although his original cap was replaced by a more modern looking baseball cap in 1992) was the comic's cover star or most of its run, although his strip went through several name changes, from 'Buster, Son of Andy Capp' to 'Buster's Diary' to 'Buster's Dream World' and then back to Buster's Diary and eventually just 'Buster'. Artists who later worked on the strip included Reg Parlett,
