Dandy - weekly no more

Over on the official DCT website there is confirmation of a recent rumour, yes the Dandy is going from being a weekly comic to a fortnightly one....

While the Dandy has been fortnightly before (during WWII) it's a slippery slope, in peacetime, towards cancellation. While comics very occasionally go from fortnightly to weekly (Mask comic in the '80s for instance), they rarely go back the other way.

The end of an era. Sad, really.
