Join The Dandy as It celebrates its 75th birthday in 2012! Launched in 1937, The Dandy was the pioneer for the British comic as we know it today. Irreverent, anarchic and 100% funny, The Dandy remains an essential gift for fun-loving Brits of all ages! Kids love the fun and colourful stories, while parents can rest easy that a trusted British institution is making reading fun again. And, of course, grandparents can relive something of their own childhood, as comic superstars who have endured for three-quarters of a century can still be found in this very special Christmas tradition.
