IPC planned a comic strip character called 'Captain Britain' which was to be drawn by Kerr during the early 1970s. Marvel later produced a similar character but the idea seemed to be dropped by IPC long before this.

'Rip Kerrigan' was a strip he did for Buster in 1961-62, and also worked on 'Kelly's Eye', 'Captain Hurricane', 'The Steel Claw', 'Charlie Peace', 'Kraken' and 'Black Axe'.
