Happy Birthday, Dandy

Post by Little Squelchy Thing »

The 4th of December 1937 saw the launch of The Dandy Comic - so I guess today is The Dandy's birthday! HUZZAH! Birthday cowpies all round!

I must say, it's looking in fine form for a 73 year-old :)

That's true. Happy birthday Dandy! I hope that two years from now they'll mark the anniversary, they ignored the 70th (due to having relaunched as Dandy Xtreme a few months earlier).
