Comic tastes

Comics have been an interest of mine from early childhood onward although as with many you find your parents cancel any orders when they think you're too old for them even though a good number read them over the age of sixteen well into adulthood.

The world of comics has changed in the last fifteen or so years with a good number I grew up with having ceased publication and indeed in late 2012 we even lost The Dandy.

The one that still survives comes from the same publisher, D C Thomson and that is the Beano which has changed a bit over the years as indeed it had to to stay relevant to today's children.

The copy pictured here is last weeks edition, dated 13 September with a mixture of old favourites but set in 2014 and some newer cartoon strips.

I still go to our local shop and buy a copy.
