Plot:
Tessa Worth had found a time-travel machine in the shape of a giant rabbit, named Flopear. When she pressed a button she didn’t realise that she would be taken to the Planet Xargo, where Flopear was originally built as a birthday present for the mean tempered Princess Meana. Eventually she is able to get back to Earth, Even after she returns home, she continues to spend time travelling the universe with Flopear, as part of her job as Deputy to a Universal Dictator.

“The Flights of Flopear” appeared twice in Bunty. The first series ends in either Bunty 1314 or 1315. I think it ends in 1314 as there is no new story beginning in 1316. The second series begins in Bunty #1359 (January 28, 1984) and ends in Bunty #1384 (July 21, 1984). It it is this series that Tessa becomes deputy to a Universal Dictator.
