Summer Comics

It's summer so it's summer special time again but with a twist as the Dandy's goes with it's controversial maker as Dandy Xtreme for this one and I for one don't care for how Desperate Dan has been drawn, looking mean.

A bit of a let down.

A few years ago The Beano stopped doing the Summer Specials I loved as a kid for the celebrity centric Monthly colour BeanoMAX editions that do little for me.

You might as well just make a point of having the regular weekly editions  with you when you're on your hols 
That might of been from 1966 rather than 1976 but it so much more colourful and appealing to a child under fourteen (or like one like me who still mentally is under that age) compared to that DandyEXTREME.
That might be a 1967 Beano edition and by 1976 Dennis would be on the front cover but that cover sets the scene as it was the edition that you had all summer hols and with you on your family holiday at the seaside.

Isn't all of this so much more age appropriate for children's publications?
