Comic heroes from guitar mags

[Blazer]

I guess it's becoming a dying breed: the comic hero who starred in guitar mags and reflected upon what was in and how guitarists behaved and what they did with their instruments. In the early to late nineties, it seemed that every guitar mag had one.

"Guitarworld" for example had Guitar Sam


"Fender Frontline" had Stratobot and Cal Fornia


But somewhere along the line one after the other, the comics vanished from those mags and I think it's a shame.
