" ... I suppose I could come clean once and for all and and tell you
about 'The Omega Comics Group,' but I'm sure I'll regret it.
"What it was, basically, was my turning out a vast number of ten page
comics drawn in coloured biro on those horrible coarse Woolworths
jotters with a little girl in a Mob-cap on the front. These included
such breathtaking concepts and characters as 'The Crimebusters', a
ripoff of the Avengers that featured Meteor Man (who could fly and
had a gun that shot little meteors out of the barrel), Ray Gun (whose
secret identity was Raymond Gunn), and Jack O'Lantern and his female
partner, The Sprite (The Spectre shacked up with The Wasp ... but then,
who isn't these days?). As I'm sure the discerning reader will notice,
my widely acclaimed sense of gritty realism coupled with dazzling
concepts was clearly visible even then."
