I'm not surprised this April Fool came up. After all, the Dandy does currently have a Big News Coming Soon page up, and that could be read similar to the old "Great News for All Readers Inside" when that news would usually turn out to be a merger.

If they really did merge of course, the comic would be titled The Beano and Dandy and would still be released on Wednesdays.

I must admit you started to fool me for a second, until I saw my name on there. I know for sure I haven't drawn any Dandy characters for The Beano recently.... or have I? :wink:
