The Dandy To Relaunch With The Face Of Harry Hill

The Dandy To Relaunch With The Face Of Harry HillHow do you distinguish between a character from the Dandy and a delicious pastry? Desperate Dan, Flan. Korky The Cat, Pain Du Chocolat. You've got to have a system.

Star of TV Burp, the surreal alternative-comedian-turned-major-mainstream-hit Harry Hill will see his own strip featured in the relaunch of Dandy as a weekly children's comedy anthology of comics again. Harry hasn't actually been involved with a strip, but I understand that his writers have been somewhat. In that David Quantick gets a name check in the comic itself. And Harry's face will beam out from the cover.

He isn't the only famous face to attach himself to The Dandy. I understand Top Gear's Jeremy Clarkson will also get cover featured.  Despite using similar celebrity techniques, it's a world away from CLiNT.

The Dandy, the oldest comic book in Britain, relaunches on Wednesday. It's all very exciting.
