Ripped this out of the Sunday Times yesterday:

It's not amazing, but it's nice enough. Quite a few characters getting doppelgängers there too!

Saw this yesterday. Good publicity for The Beano....but what a load of sh**. The originals should be in the Royal Academy!

I'm sure we could all do a better job of pasting beano or any other comic characters on landmark photos

I like it. C'mon chaps - this is the guy who gave us the iconic album cover for Sgt. Pepper, and a key figure in the Pop Art movement!

It's miles better than David Mach's attempt.

I was hoping for Quentin Blake.

As long as it's not Quentin Crisp, it'll be OK.

Hardly possible is it, Colin? He died in 1999. And, in any case, why would it be an issue?

It's the stick and lift feature from the Dandy Beano 50 golden years celebration sticker album that has gone a bit wrong...

I love the way Snitch and Snatch lead the viewer's eye into the picture; it's really quite a sophisticated composition.
