Remember The "New Hornet"? No One Ever Does!

In 1987, D. C. Thomson (Dundee Editions) were "very interested" in the idea of reviving their old adventure heroes and suggested I put together a mock copy. 
So, Tom Elmes drew PENDRAGON and I must have his depiction of the demon somewhere but only two pages have been found. 
The wonderful John Erasmus drew CAPTAIN HORNET
John P. Welding drew a now adult BILLY THE CAT and I drew a grown up GENERAL JUMBO who got 'drafted' by Military Intelligence and sent to a war in South America. 
Very few pages remain. 
Oh, Thomson responded:"not really interested."
