    I've examples of many kilted characters in comics...just not sure which were actually drawn that way and which have been adapted.

    Just seems like a beek with nice bees. Italian Hybrids are known for being super gentle, for example.

    I've done my weekly maintenance in an Pakastani-made acrylic kilt and a Utilikilt, no shirt, no socks, no veil, no smoke. I've had only one sting, but that was because the bee got caught in my belly flap and I bent over at the same time.

    Wild Young Dirky.

    The one I always remember was Wild Young Dirky in the Topper, mid 1950's. It always appealed as I had just got into wearing a kilt then. Probably learned more Scottish history from that than I did from school, which although Scottish, never went anywhere near Scottish history from that or any other period.
    If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!

    I saw that Riverkilt posted a Pickles comic about the kilt. That one was in a series of five Brian Crane did about kilts and kilt wearing. I received these as a Christmas present this year. All were signed by Brian. Here are the five strips:
