Obituary: Bob Hobson was inspiration for BoomZilla!
Twenty one years to the month from when he was in the BoomZilla cartoon strip as alter-ego Jim Gentry to the BoomZilla character himself, Bob had a genetically-inevitable heart attack (he was just selected for the UK over 50’s national cycling team) while away doing something he loved. He will be sorely missed.
(NB: IF YOU WANT JUST SEE THE STRIP ART, SKIP THE FIRST TWO MINUTES.)
