Roy Race 2007
Posted Feb 8th 2007, 12:31pm by Reiss Malone

He's back! The legendary hotshot comic book star Roy Of The Rovers has made a remarkable comeback, six years after his last magazine appearance in Match Of the Day magazine; Roy has been dusted down and will now be crossing the white line for fanzine Players Inc. In his prime, Race endured earthquakes, bombs and even had his leg chopped off in a helicopter crash. But you never heard dubious stories about him & Eddie Black doing inappropriate things with telephones or liaising with 200 year-old ladies of the night. The Daily Mirror's Nick Webster has written a hilarious account of how Race's diary might read if he was suddenly propelled back into a WAG infested Premier league 2007. Sample entry: "Raging hangover. Me and the lads were out till 3am celebrating my new Netto clothing contract." Go to The Mirror to read more about Roy's antics.
iSporty would like to hear about your own comic book heroes who you think should be getting a 2007 makeover.
