The Bogies is a comic strip in The Dandy and Turbo Extreme. It features bunches of nasal mucus and their adventures. Many of the characters names are twists on some famous person or character from pop culture. These characters will often act like celebrities but in a gross manner. It originally appeared in Toxic in 2005, but moved to The Dandy in June 2008. It was created by Paul Kell and Mark Greenbaum. The comic writer and illustrator is Nigel Auchterlounie. The last strip in Toxic was a Hock Hogan one, and the first Dandy one was a Splatman and Gobbin story.

Collected editions

Two 56 page books have been given away in issues of The Dandy Xtreme which collect together a large number of stories from the series as well as adding facts, puzzles, jokes and posters.
