Christmas Leftovers

IF YOU picked up the bumper, Christmas issue of The Dandy (and if not, WHY not?) then you’ll have seen my festively-themed episode of George vs Dragon, based around the Christmas carol ‘Silent Night’ (except with ‘night’ changed to ‘knight’, because I’m a genius!).

However, that strip was actually my SECOND attempt at a seasonal special this year, and now I can share with you the original strip I drew up for the Christmas issue, which was passed up on in favour of the strip which saw print, possibly because this one isn’t all that funny. But I’m still quite pleased with the artwork in it.

So yeah, here it is in all its rejected glory, for you to enjoy with all the other Christmas leftovers!
