Hartlepool in Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley reference 5, 29.Sep.2006
hartlepool monkey in the Get Fuzzy comic
In the December 21, 2003 Sunday comic of Get Fuzzy, a US comic by Darby Conley, Bucky gets a book for Christmas called “The Hartlepool Monket Incident”.
Trish says: “Imagine…A place where monkeys wash up on the beach like hairy ocean fruit…”

There is also another comic where Bucky, the monkey-hating cat dresses as a Hartlepool F.C. fan / soccer hooligan.
[via The Guardian and others]
Would love to see either of these if anyone has access to them.
