 Baxendale himself drew the first few editions, which appeared as large single illustrations on some of the early covers of "Smash", after which Mike Lacey took over.The second spin-off from Baxendale's "Eagle-Eye" strip was "Grimly Feendish" (subtitled "The Rottenest Crook in the World"), which Leo Baxendale himself drew.Feendish had been the most popular character in the earlier strip, thanks to his ghoulish appearance, which was based on Uncle Fester in the American television series "The Addams Family" (and, presumably, on Charles Adams' illustrations from which the TV series was derived).
