Kingston



Steve Kingston took over on the Carrie strip in 1977 after the departure of Mario Capaldi. Steve had contributed artwork to Mayfair, and other men's magazines, for several years and had been asked a number of times if he would take over the strip. Steve was easily the most prolific of Carrie's illustrators, drawing well over a hundred strips over ten years. He was paired initially with David Brenner, who was employed by Mayfair as a staff writer.

Steve Kingston's style, particularly in the early days, was more cartoon-like than either of his predecessors and, while he created some highly imaginative perils for our heroine, and produced many fine examples of erotic art, at times the strip appeared rushed and lacked the sort of detail that made Lawrence's work so memorable. It also lacked the kinkiness of Lawrence's work. It has to conceded, though, that Steve had an exceptional talent for depicting see through underwear!!

The men Carrie had met in Lawrence's strips had only one thing on their mind. The humour stemmed from the way in which, most of the time, she got the better of them. Many of Steve Kingston's stories relied solely on Carrie losing her clothes. While this was always a pleasure to witness, it did become fairly routine and it beggared belief when time and again the men Carrie met seemed content to laugh at her predicament without taking any advantage.

There were exceptions - the "Hinge and Bracket" duo (right) who took Carrie in to "dry off" after a soaking obviously recognised a good thing when they saw it, as did the guys from the bob-sleigh team when they found her with her head stuck in the railings.

We also enjoyed Carrie's encounter with a couple of costumed cads from the Civil War society the Sealed Knot.

Dave Brenner left the magazine during Kingston's run and spent a short time working as a sports reporter for London's LBC Radio. Later storylines were devised by Brian Bower. Bower, who was actually a postman at the time, had submitted a couple of scripts to the magazine which Kingston liked. The two men would bounce ideas around between them. Kingston says that Bower had a real feel for the character and would produce storylines almost effortlessly. Bower went uncredited because Mayfair's editor decided he wanted only a single credit on the strip.

Kingston was quoted last year as saying "after illustrating Carrie's adventures for so many years (113 published in total) it is truly gratifying to know that she was appreciated by so many. I certainly enjoyed painting her and indeed she took up a big part of my life as an illustrator. Strange as it may seem, I enjoyed painting her more towards the end, so I didn't get tired of depicting her (mis) adventures every month, just that circumstances took me in a somewhat different direction."

Steve Kingston's work is featured at

CARRIE-CARTOON.COM

a pay-site which includes, they say, some new specially drawn material. Out of respect for them we will not, knowingly, feature here any material which has been filched from their archives. All the images posted in Carrie's Den are already posted elsewhere on the web and are freely available for anyone to access. Steve still owns all the original art he did for Mayfair along with other men's magazines.

The limitations imposed by our free host means that we have had to sacrifice size and quality on all the strips posted. For that reason alone it may be worth joining CARRIE-CARTOON.COM for larger, clearer images, although Steve Kingston tells us that none of the scans for any website, including CARRIE-CARTOON.COM, were taken from his originals.

Incidentally Steve also produced a Carrie pin-up Calendar for a company called Gainsborough.
