Dear Reader,
RE: MISSING STRIKER ON SATURDAY
Thank you for your email. Please forgive the non-personal response but there have been so many queries about the missing strip on Saturday that I shall have to reply to them in the form of a circular.
I have contacted The Sun and it seems the problem can be attributed to the fact that in a few weeks I shall sadly be bringing Striker’s long run as a newspaper strip to an end. I know my decision will disappoint Striker’s fans but I feel strongly that the saga has gone as far as it should go and I have always promised myself that I would end Striker on a high rather than risk seeing it become stale.
I would be happy to consider relaunching it in the future and have offered to produce a new strip for The Sun in the meanwhile. To date, I have not had a response.
My intention is to work on new creative projects but I also want to develop the Striker story into other formats, including a series of books and, hopefully, the first of a sequence of animated movies. I shall post updates about this on our website, Striker3D || Home, which will be relaunched in September.
Because Striker will be ending in around five weeks’ time, The Sun have decided not to run the full-page football strips on Saturdays. Unfortunately this decision led to Striker being left out completely on Saturday, which, as far as I am concerned, should not have happened.
I am sorry to give you such disappointing news but I hope you will understand my reasons.
With apologies and best wishes,
Pete Nash
The final strip appeared in The Sun on Friday 18th September 2009.

There is NO excuse for buying The Sun.
Agreed.

Oh well. At least the soft-porn comedy genius of George and LYNNE are still going.
Side-splitting stuff.

From today I stopped buying The Sun
To be fair, it's not The Sun's fault. The writer has decided to stop writing the Striker comic strip. He wants to develop it in other ways.
