Come again?

Is this 'real' news? Is it a DC Thomson publication? Is it a dream?
BTW, could we have at least 16 pages of strip action ...??

Sounds a good idea if true , hopefull yif it is the strips will be all new and not touched up reprints - probably the way to go for a "Boys" title is to mix it with Footy and DVDs , PCs etc. Have my doubts though this is the real thing.

Seems to me that the perpetrators behind this little exercise in bizarre self-publicity need a lot of counselling!Poor dears,they must find it very hard to make new friends :cry:

All sorry yes it is just a dream, I saw a thread a few weeks back asking how a boys mag could come back & this is just my idea. Yes I did post a couple of years back about the Wizard coming back & that was 100% true DC Thomson actually went all the to creating a proof copy but got cold feet at the end. School kids today are currently well into Top Trumps which went out of fashion in the 90's but are now back big time, my kids & their friends love them....so why not comics especially boys comics. It begs the question why hasn't any publisher seeked the rights to Harry Potter comic strip could be a good foundation to a new boys mag!!! what does everyone think? :D

Enquires were made by at least one publisher but allegedly J K Rowling doesn't want her character turned into a comic strip.
