thanks for that I've not seen that before...would have worked well for the Beano and Dandy panto book last year...
I just love David Sutherland's Dennis the Menace and Gnasher..

Ironically, I had previously posted the episode on my blog, but I had it under an obscure name instead of how I do it now (I had it as dennisxmas01.jpg and dennisxmas02.jpg instead of what I used here beano19741221a.jpg and beano19741221b.jpg)

Wouldn't yours be the following issue then? It would be 20th July, released on 18th.
Mine is the 14th October 1989. I do have it somewhere, but it is at the bottom of a big pile. I did check comic vine, but it was just my luck they would have the 7th and 21st, but not the 14th!
Anyway, here is a picture I found through Google. Not a very good one though.

And there's me assuming that they're released on the date shown on the cover, whoops! I'd best get looking again in time for next year

Cheers, Digi - appreciate that
Funds are a bit low at the moment but it's added to the "Watch" list regardless.

**GULP!**I had two kids by 1985! I remember an article in the late Comic Book Marketplace (USA) where someone wrote about collecting all the comics they could for their month of their birth (remember this was American). It made interesting reading.
