If only I had the power...

I would keep the Dandy in print form but with a difference.

First: It would be a monthly.

Second: It would not just contain the classic Dandy names we know and love, it would showcase other DCT characters (such as Morgyn the Mighty, King Cobra, etc...). It could be a mixture of reprints/new stories though I would imagine the emphasis would be on the reprints.

Third: I would aim the comic (which is why I would suggest it could be a monthly) at the dads rather than the kids (although they could buy it if they want).

So in summary: A Dandy/Classics From the Comics combo monthly (though called the Dandy) but with the emphasis on story/adventure strips with a few Dandy classic comedy strips thrown in.

I would definitely buy it.

i would buy it as well, but continue the numbering & not start again at iss 1. new stories with classic characters but with decent art not aimed at toddlers even though i appreciate that is the market but the current art style is what is driving the nosatalgia market away.

Reality: the nostalgia market is worth far fewer sales than the target age group.

Not sure where this art aimed at toddlers is... historically art aimed at toddlers appears to have been the most "realistic" and least stylised, as far as anthropomorphism allows.
