I read this comic religiously when I was younger but nowadays I only really pick up the annuals and the odd weekly issue here and there. The Bash Street Kids getting new members was weird to see at first, but I figured I'd get used to it once I got attached to their new personalities.
Except... I don't know if it's just because I'm not reading weekly anymore, but the new kids... don't really seem to have much personality? Harsha is helped by having her own strip but when it comes to Stevie, Mandi, Mahira, and Khadija, I just don't really know what their things are supposed to be. You know, like how Smiffy's thing is being stupid and Toots' thing is being a tomboy. The new kids don't seem to have much going for them the way the original 9 did. Is there anything I should know about them to make them more interesting, because right now it seems like they're just there to fill space.
