The Hornet Index.
Last Updated April 2010. Note this is very much a work in progress page.
Please note that no Hornet annuals or summer specials were published. This index is a work in progress.
I would also like to thank the following people who have provided me with information for this index - Jeremy Briggs, Steve Holland, Ray Moore
and Jim Croasdale.
Notes on how to use this index.
The index below is arranged A to Z by strip title, character and subject headings. Search for characters and artists by their surname.
