Retain comic - not Hogan (4,4)
I believe the answer is:
hang onto
'retain' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'comic not hogan' is the wordplay.
'comic' is an anagram indicator.
'not'+'hogan'='nothogan'
'nothogan' with letters rearranged gives 'HANG ONTO'.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
