named Hector who finds big and small things with his metal detector. In one strip he found a key that according to a passing rich man opened up a chest with gold inside and gave him £500. The character later returned in the 30th edition comic. Hell Below Zero – One-off strip depicting a man on a zero-hours contract called in by his boss first thing in the morning and made to wait around all day while only being paid for thirty-seven minutes work. This same concept was used as an episode of 'We...' and a separate although related strip, 'My Workfare Lady' (which see). Hen Cabin – A takeaway run by two scruffy, dishonest men who cut corners by making their takeaways from chicken utterly unfit for consumption or using easily obtained birds (such as pigeons or in one episode, seagulls!) instead of chicken. Their product is quite unpalatable, but they keep doggedly on making it. Often, they go out of their way to make their opposite numbers (on the same street or very close by) to appear worse than themselves. Mostly they fail. Hermit the Frog - A one-off three-paneled strip about Kermit the Frog from The Muppet Show living in a shed with the curtains closed. High Wire Building Society – A strip about a building society located in a circus. Hikaru Nikkoro – A Japanese businessman attempting to steal women's used underwear. The Hippopotamus Man – A paedophile who believes he is a hippopotamus. He infuriates everyone around him by informing them that he is a hippopotamus, while continuing to try to abuse children. This strip guest-starred The Parkie (which see) Honour-Bound – A strip about a Samurai trying to defecate. Hubble and Bubble - "They're looking for trouble". This strip portrays two policemen, one appearing normal and the other a caricature of a pig. They are out to make as much trouble as possible, even concocting situations for their own 'entertainment'. One episode has an elderly lady bewailing her cat up a tree. H & B come on the scene and immediately accuse her of using the tree ('This big lump of wood') to attack them. Both woman and cat finally are murdered, and the two 'cover their badges' and leave. Hugh Phemism – He is unable to communicate in anything other than circumlocutory language, leading to predictable misunderstandings. Hugo Hall - He Makes Things
