Mad Cows from English Men

This picture started life as a throw-away background picture in one of the early Funny Farm strips, (I'll dig out the original some time soon for comparison.) I always liked the drawing, it made me laugh and I think it sums up the humour of the strip very well. Its a cow... wearing a cowboy hat, using a carrot to entice his space-hopper forwards while talking to a bird. Sublime!

All of the orginal strips were penciled by Gordon then inked and lettered by me. This colour piece has been redrawn and coloured by me but is very close to Gordon's original.
