Izal did not clean it merely dispersed. A vigorous wipe could lead to skid marks from your navel to the mddle of your back!

sorry, st don't recall any of those charcaters, think mine were just beano and topper and mostly merely the annuals
Strips in The Beezer included:

• Adrian the Barbarian - reprinted as of 19 July 2008 issue (3441) of The Beano as Olaff the Madlander.
• Baby Crockett - supposedly a baby version of Davy Crockett, but in practice a modern-day 'cute toddler' strip
• The Badd Lads - a group of three criminals (Boss, Fingers and Knucklehead) always on the run or bungling an attempted crime. Drawn by Malcolm Judge
• Barney's Barmy Army
• Beefy Dan The Fast-Food Man
• Black Bun - a rabbit stealing cabbages from a farmer
• The Black Sapper - 1959 story about a thief who stole the Crown Jewels with his tunnelling machine called the Earthworm.
• The Banana Bunch - a group of mischievous schoolchildren similar to The Bash Street Kids
• Cap'n Hand and his merry mutineers - a pirate captain and his endlessly rebellious crew
• Colonel Blink The Short-Sighted Gink
• Fred's Bed - reprinted in The Beano.
• Geezer
• General Jim
• Ginger - cover star in earliest issues, and from mid-1960s to 1990. [1]
• The Gobbles - a group of vultures always on the lookout for food. Similar to The Three Bears
• Hugh's Zoo
• Hungry Hoss - a horse owned by Joe the cowboy robber who couldn't stop eating.
• The Iron Eaters - sponges from space that ate iron, causing all kinds of problems
• Little Mo - a generic resourceful/mischievous tomboy
• My Pal, Ropey
• Paw, Maw and Porky
• Plug (from Plug)
• Pop, !!!!!! and Harry - early cover story about twins trying to outsmart their father. In every issue.
• Saucy Sue
• Scrapper
• Smiffy
• Space Patrol
• Spacewacker - name of the family spaceship. The feature was a development of the earlier 'Bushwacker' strip, in which an Australian father and his two children (who never grew older despite various versions of Bushwacker and many years of publication) - journeyed in a 'land yacht' capable of travelling on land or water under sail or jet engine power. Bushwacker later developed into a flying, sailing, submersible wheeled helicopter. The storyline moved on with the 'Spacewacker' in which the same party roamed around a strange alien world. The vehicle was a large bubble-fronted vehicle that travelled on rollers and bristled with gadgets on demand.
• The Banana Bunch
• The Hillys and the Billys - two feuding hillbilly families. This strip was surprisingly violent, with the families eager to shoot each other with shotguns - even to the point of co-operating in order to steal guns from the sheriff
• The Munchers
• The Numskulls - small "people" living in your head, each working in their own department: brain, eyes, nose, ears, and mouth (now in The Beano.)
• Tommy's Toybox - Tommy finds a toolbox from space and builds all kinds of interesting things
• True Brit
• Tuff and Tiny
• Twitt Hall
• The Wallies of Winkle Street
• Young Sid The Copper's Kid

can remember most of these but some well must be old age
