"The Adventures of Ben" by Ian Carr

Back in the 90s, a digest-sized magazine called Jr. Jays Magazine and Kids Club was published in association with the Toronto Blue Jays Baseball club in Toronto, Canada.

One of the artists was Ian Carr; who worked briefly for Charlton Comics, doing a story in Charlton Bullseye # 3 (1981); also doing the cover, featured at the right.  Ian was a graduate of the Graphic Story Arts course at Sheridan College, Oakville, Canada in the 1980s.

Here's one of Ian's strips from the # 2 issue of Jr. Jays Magazine (1997):

Spider-man: Skating on Thin Ice

This title was produced under the direction of the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police with the co-operation of the Alliance for a Drug-Free Canada!  Sporting a great cover by Todd McFarlane (possibly the only Canadian involved), the interior was written by Dwayne McDuffie, penciled by Alex Suviuk, inked by Christopher Ivy and colored by Gregory Wright.  Bob Budiansky and Tom DeFalco were editors.  Presented here are the front and back covers of this comic, which was given away free at Canadian schools. 

Not sure of the number of issues that were released; we know of at least 2 issues and we'll get more art online from these unusual items soon!

I was knocked out when this hot cover by Steranko appeared on the stands in 1968!  One of the most powerful and best renditions of the Hulk ever done!
