Krazy was a British comic book magazine published every Monday by IPC Magazines Ltd. It ran from (issues dates) 16 October 1976 to 15 April 1978, when it merged with stable-mate Whizzer and Chips. The Krazy Gang also spawned spin-off stories within the same publication: Pongalongapongo, featuring Pongo Snodgrass, the unhygienic, bullying antagonist; and ello, It's Cheeky, a mischievous buck-toothed prankster and Krazy Gang member, drawn by Frank McDiarmid. Cheeky's popularity outgrew the spin-off strip, and after a few months the character featured in his own publication, Cheeky Weekly, launched in October 1977.

Other strip artists included Robert Nixon and Terry Bave.
