I’m pretty sure Ginger Meggs had Minnie Peters as a girlfriend as far back as the 1980s (she’s a character in the 1982 movie) and probably even earlier than that.
Not sure what Jason and co think about this issue however I personally wouldn’t be surprised if Australian newspapers wanted to dump comic strips at least 2-3 years ago, only being generous enough to wait until a little after Ginger Meggs’ 100th birthday (which itself didn’t generate as much coverage in this country as it should’ve) so as to not trigger much wider outrage.
I wonder if Jason Chatfield is going to have much (or even any) involvement with the Ginger Meggs brand moving forward, especially as it seems he won’t be part of the animated series.
