With the help of a computer we can now read it without a mirror...
Its such a tricky thing to read..and quite a bizarre strip idea!!
Whoopee!! 27th May 1978

Steve Bell's Whoopee's Dick Doobie Back to Front man.get your mirrors out folks!!.
I've been waiting a long time to see this..
so thanks klakadak-ploobadoof
The name of the strip was Dick Doobie the Back to Front Man. It ran in Whoopee from 22nd April, 1978 till 9th September, 1978, a total of 20 appearances except in issue dated 8th July, 1978. Below are some scans, including that of the first episode. Am I imagining things, or is there really some resemblance to Robert Crumb's work?
