Isn't it great that annuals still sell - when I was a kid annuals were an essential part of Christmas morning :)
Managed to pick up the Dandy and Beano Annuals for £1 each in Sainsburys.
I enjoyed the cameo appearance by Dennis's dad as he used to be drawn in the Billy Whizz strip.
Huh, I'd've thought the Dandy was the bigger seller this year. Still loads of Beano annuals available but the Dandy one seems to be sold out everywhere!
Probably just a lower print run.
Quantities of both seemed about the same around here but both have sold out now. Yes, I'm sure The Beano Annual would have had a bigger print run. I think they're birth still available on Amazon though, and directly from DC Thomson.
Sorry, should be 'both', not birth! Bloomin' auto correct!
