Harke & Burr

The majority of the Harke & Burr stories were written by Si Spencer and drawn by Dean Ormston.

Gordon Rennie co-wrote one story and Paul Peart provided the artwork for another.

The name is a Spoonerism based on infamous body-snatchers Burke and Hare who committed the West Port murders.

They have only appeared in their own, eponymous strip: The characters also make a cameo appearance in the Judge Dredd novel Cursed Earth Asylum, by David Bishop (Virgin Books, December 1993, ISBN 0-352-32893-2).

"Antique and Curious", "Hamster Horror" and "Grief Encounter" were reprinted as a giveaway with the 350th edition of the Judge Dredd Megazine in July.
