Birthday Knight

IT’S MY birthday today – pause for whoops and cheers – and as such I have received a couple of LOVELY virtual birthday cards from my talented internet chums, featuring those medieval miscreants, George vs Dragon! Here they are for your viewing pleasure – they’re the gifts that keep on giving!

NUMMY CAKE! George and Dragon call a temporary truce to enjoy CAKE, courtesy of the excellent Louis Lloyd-Judson! Yay for cake!

The truce doesn’t last long, however – it looks like Dragon finished off the cake himself, much to George’s chagrin! Picture by super Steve Beckett, one of my fellow Dandy artists!

This one technically wasn’t a birthday picture, but it was sent to me on the day before, so I’ve included it, because it’s so awesome. Besides which, as the song goes, ‘it’s my party and I’ll insert an image created for me on the day before my birthday if I want to’. Thanks to Sheldon Goodman for this awesome picture!

UPDATE! And here’s a fantastic last-minute addition, this time featuring that vigilante vegetable, The Carrotty Kid, drawn here by Josh Champion! Hooray!

A big thank you to all of the above for these lovely drawings, they’re very much appreciated! And thanks also to the many kind souls who took the time to say ‘Happy Birthday’ on Facebook and Twitter! YOU GUYS ROCK!

In other news, don’t forget the new Dandy is on sale NOW, with yet another Dave the Squirrel strip inside, featuring the return of his nemesis Doctor Grey!  Dun-dun-duuuuuuhhhhhhn!

That’s The Dandy, issue 3553, out NOW for only £1.50. Pick one up as a belated birthday gift to me. YOU WOULDN’T WANT TO RUIN MY SPECIAL DAY, WOULD YOU?
