I used to love getting The Dandy Annual each year when I lived in England. I picked up the 80th Anniversary edition (2018) on a whim.

The size of the book is a little larger than the older copies I have, almost 1 inch wider, but it's also slightly shorter on the page count.

I was disappointed to find that one of my favorite characters, Bananaman, was moved to The Beano at some point so he isn't in this annual.

In summary, the 2018 annual is entertaining, but doesn't really hold up to my memories of reading this 30 years ago.

I was never as much of a Dandy fan as I was a Beano one, but this is a pretty good annual with a nice story over the final pages. And there's a good Leonard Cohen joke in there along the way, too. Definitely a decent way to commemorate 80 years of The Dandy.

Jolly good fun. Some shorts better than others but Desperate Dan will alwahs be one of my favourites ☺️

Still more of a Beano fan but solid enough Dandy annual with Postman Prat being the star of the show
