Ernie (comic strip)
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
Ernie was a cartoon published in the British comic book Eagle, from the first issue (dated March 27 1982) and appearing in most issues thereafter. He was drawn by Dave Gibbons.
Ernie was a fictional eagle, and The Eagle's mascot. He supposedly lived atop King's Reach Tower, the headquarters of IPC where the Eagle was produced.
By Eagle's reluanch in issue 79 (dated September 24 1983), his strip had been dropped, but he still continued to appear occasionally as part of editoral content, until he was replaced by Max from The Thirteenth Floor.
