Rupert Bear is 105 years old this year, my Mother used to read the adventures from childhood into adulthood. I would buy her the annual every Christmas.
I guess that is like me, reading comics since 1966. Maybe one day I will have to grow up but it seems awfully tedious being too much of an adult.

"The Rupert annuals were the only books I read as a child. I found Bestall’s world fascinating – whether it was a giant flicking Rupert through the air or a sea monster swimming up the river." ~Terry Jones
