Re: Digital Dandy

Thanks Harry- I knew I could count on you to do a round up of all the characters and artists! :) Another thought I've been pondering is- what do people think of the value of the Digital Dandy compared to what directly preceded it, the 2010 Dandy? What I mean is, animations aside, are we getting good...

Re: Digital Dandy

So what is new and what is reprint in the digital Dandy?? Obviously Dan, Bananaman, Brassneck, Kate and Retroactive are. As is Bad Hair Day and Numskulls. But what about Blinky, Laughing Planet and Sneaker? I would have assumed reprints, but have they got their old artists back (Tom P & Nick B) to c...

Re: The Final Dandy

Looking forward to this too, hoping it will be a bumper issue. Like Bruce, I've ordered mine through dct. Can't trust my 'local' newsagent to get it in. So what else do we know in regards to artists and stories? I do recall Lew saying somewhere he hs been working on material for it but I wonder whet...

Re: Digital Dandy

I have nothing to do with a digital Dandy as far as I know. Does this mean you have something to do with another type of dandy? Other than the final issue and future annuals? Or am I reading too much into non-existent wordplays here? Also of note is that in the comments to his post on billy whizz, ...

Re: Nice e-mail from Ellis Watson

This does sound promising. Gives me a little hope that there are real plans afoot for the Dandy to continue albeit in a different form. I was beginning to worry that it was going to be some weak effort at getting the Dandy online that would eventually just fizzle away. That said, I do wonder at what...

Free Dandy's on ipad app?

Hi all, Just curious if anyone else has noticed this- on the Dandy iPad app the last three Dandy's have been free to download. Originally they were $1.99 (AUD) and more recently they all changed to $0.99. And now they keep coming up as free. Seems a little odd to me and was wondering if it's a glitc...

Sadly, no I have never got my hands on one of these issues, let alone have a spare!

Re: This weeks Dandy

Sooooo... I'm better off getting it online then! :-) I get the content for half the regular physical issue cover price as opposed to paying double for the physical issue just to get the gifts and no actual extra comic.

Cool- so what's the content like this week?

Re: This weeks Dandy

The reason I ask about the price is that i am deciding whether to buy the issue now on my iPad or wait till I can get the physical issue in 2 months time (in Australia). I waited for the Christmas issue and got it for $9 or so, then realised I could have got it for half that price on the iPad and th...

Re: This weeks Dandy

So, quick question- this being a 3 week issue, is it regular page length or a bumper issue? And what price is it?

Thanks!

Bananaman in Beano thoughts...

I'm surprised no-one has posted about this yet, but I may as well kick off the speculation re Bananaman in the Beano! I'm posting it here rather than the subforums as it relates to both Dandy & Beano. So I wonder what the reasoning here is? If I were to be pessimistic and a foreteller of doom and gl...

Re: The last Harry Hill for the Christmas Dandy!!

As much as I was dubious about Harry Hill when the Dandy relaunched last year, I've enjoyed the quirky zany humour and have grown to quite enjoy it, so will now miss it! Good work NP on all the art and the writing and hopefully we'll get to see more of your work in other forms in the future. As for ...

Re: Beano and Dandy digital editions launched

I don't pipe up much in here, but this I felt deserved a pipe. This seems like such a good idea- and hopefully one that will help the Dandys distribution and sales. However it's for selfish reasons that I really like this idea! Living in Australia the Dandy is even harder to find in newsagents than ...

Re: This weeks Dandy

I wonder if this is simply a "summer schools holidays" front cover, and then we'll revert back to the other one? I don't mind the 'new' cover logo and layout, but would love to see versions of it with Dan and Bananaman etc also... Although to be honest I still love the logo and cover style that we d...
