Gimlet Mops Up (1950) By Captain W. E. Johns
Gimlet Mops Up, by W. E. Johns was published in October 1947 by Brockhampton. It was the fourth Gimlet book and the second to deal with his post war adventures.
The events in the book take place in Britain in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War. The plotline also contains a prominent and very early appearance of Biggles and Ginger in their Special Air Police role. The Special Air Police had only been set up in Sergeant Bigglesworth C.I.D. published barely two months before.
French publisher Aredit adapted the story for their King comic series in two parts, the first part being King et les loups-garous, published in August 1969.
