  26Pigs.com : UK Comics : Whizzer & Chips
Regarding whizzer and chips comic, I think it first came out in 1969 and continued to be published until its merger with Buster in 1990.
Whizzer and Chips launched at 32 pages for 6d (2 1/2p), so it really did seem like two 16 page comics at 3d each.
Whizzer and Chips merged with Buster in 1990.

 Lazy Bones - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lazy Bones was originally a comic strip in the UK comic Whizzer and Chips.
The strip was about a boy called Benny Bones, who would constantly fall asleep everywhere, much to the annoyance of his parents.
Until 1986 the strip was drawn by Colin Whittock, and moved to Buster in 1990 after Whizzer and Chips ended.

 Paintbox - The Christmas Issue - IPC World
"Whizzer and Chips" was a fine example of imagination overload to the extent that even the presentation was original.
IPC seemed reluctant to give up the ghost on flop titles such as "Shiver and Shake" (a spectral comic with the same format as "Whizzer and Chips", with spooks or monsters in every cartoon) in annual form, and carried on running the adventures of the characters for a few Christmases in hardback form instead.
Eventually even the seemingly indestructible "Whizzer and Chips" got absorbed into Buster, then "Buster" failed by a matter of days to last into the twenty-first century after mostly consisting of re-runs for the last four or five years of its life.

In some games, Sweet Tooth is the main character, but in others he is merely a mascot, altough easily one of the most popular characters in the game.
Sweet Tooth was also a fictional character in a comic strip in the UK comic Whizzer and Chips, first appearing in January 1973.
A 'Whizz-Kid' in the comic, and about a boy who has a fixation for sweets, continually hounded by Greedy Greg (originally Bully Bloggs), it joined Buster after Whizzer and Chips merged with it in 1990.

 The 1990s
In November 1990, Whizzer and Chips joined Buster becoming the final title to join the comic.
Although still continuing with The Best of Whizzer & Chips monthly, and releasing annuals it was as if Whizzer and Chips had never left, though joining Buster’s weekly output made it clear struck a final blow to the Fleetway comic industry.

 Whizzer And Chips   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Whizzer and Chips was launched as two comics in one on the 18th October 1969.
The idea behing Whizzer and Chips was that readers would be on the side of either the Whizz-kids or Chipites, though very few did (except the characters!).
Some of the strips that found their resting place in Buster included Joker, Sweeney Toddler, Odd Ball, Junior Rotter, Sid's Snake, Fuss Pot, and The Bumpkin Billionaires.

Oink, that really quite wacky comic, was merged with Buster after a 2 and a half year solo run, in November 1988.
And finally, on 3rd November 1990, that great stalwart, Whizzer And Chips, joined Buster after 21 years on its own.

For those that remember the days of Whoopee, Whizzer and Chips (let's face it, that was a real bargain - two comics for the price of one) and the Beano you will know what I mean by real comics.
A comic depends on good artwork to be called a comic - even the Kelpie living next door knows that - but the makers of the moden British comics seem to have overlooked that rather important point.
Bring back the Bumpkin Billionaires and Bookworm from Whoopee, Sid and his snake and Shiner from Whizzer and Chips, Jack Pott and The Incredible Sulk from Jackpot how about the star Buster (who not only had his own comic (Buster), but also teamed up with Jackpot and Whizzer and Chips).
