Buster Capp is a British comic strip series which debuted on 28 May 1960 in the magazine Buster and ran until January 2000. The character was the mascot of the magazine too. The series is a spin-off of Andy Capp, starring Andy's young son Buster, despite not being drawn by the original artist of that comic, Reg Smythe.
The connection with Andy Capp was gradually forgotten over time, and Andy no longer appeared in the strip by the mid-1960s. From 1965 the strip instead featured Buster in two long-running series: as lead character in the extremely durable Buster's Diary (1960–68 and 1974–85) and in Buster's Dream World (1968–74).
