How to search this blog

 

This blog ceased being updated several years ago but there are over 3,000 entries where you will hopefully find comics and strips that interest you. Here's a guide on how to use it. Note: this works best on a laptop or PC rather than on a phone. If you are using a phone, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on "See web version".


From various enquiries I've received it occurs to me that some visitors to this blog may be unaware of the two search facilities available to readers. Those of you who only receive these posts as an e-mail won't be able to access those search windows, so if you ever need to reference anything I've covered, please visit the full blog at http://lewstringer.blogspot.co.uk/

When you arrive at the blog you'll see two small search windows. They're not immediately obvious so I'll highlight them in this image: 

 


Each window has its own way of displaying results to a search. For example, if you were interested in Scorcher comic, and you typed that into the top left window like so...

 


...the results would show the full posts of every posting that Scorcher has appeared in, starting with the most relevant...

 


It can be a bit time consuming scrolling through the full posts, so personally I think the search window on the right hand side is better. Here's why. If, for example you were searching for 1950s UK Marvels and you typed that into the search window on the right...


 

 ...the results you'd see would be condensed, with no images, making it quicker to hopefully find what you're looking for...

 
Then if you simply click on any of those results you'd see the full post...

 


The majority of you will no doubt already know all of this so my apologies for taking up your time with the bloomin' obvious. However I hope it'll prove useful to new readers. There are over 3,000 posts on this blog, and those search windows are a great way to quickly find what you're looking for. Happy hunting!

It's KO-FI Time! Check out my new online shop

 

This is a one-off post just to give my new website a plug. I've now joined Ko-Fi and will be selling my comics there from now on instead of eBay. 

I'll also be selling some original art there at special Buy It Now prices from time to time. There's a Daft Dimension comic strip ready to buy already (if it hasn't already been snapped up).

I'll also be using it as a blog and news site for previews of what I'm up to. It's all a work in progess at the moment while I get used to the new site.

Items for sale so far are Combat Colin Nos.3 to 5, Fanzine Funnies, all as physical comics to post to you, plus two digital PDF comics you can download for a small fee, Barmy Comix and Tough Guy. (Both of which were previously available from my Google Drive but will now be exclusive to Ko-Fi.) 

One of the main focuses of Ko-Fi is that it's a platform where followers can donate a fee of any amount to the creators whose work they enjoy. I'm not earning a lot these days due to fatigue-related health issues so any donation would be very much appreciated. 

Anyway, here's the link if you want to check it out! Thanks in advance!
