From: RustyÿBullethole, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Guess who still has his handgun, no concealed carry permit mind you, just slung on his hip for all to see. Desperate Dan of course, that childrens favourite for half a century is openly flouting the British governments handgun ban. Of course the location of Dan's adventures seem to vary from issue to issue, from the wild west to Scotland, Dan's trusty side arm never leaves his side. My daughter has started reading the Dandy, an old family tradition. The happy time spent guiding her through the wonderful stories are sometimes dashed, my lip quivering whenever she asks the question "daddy what's that brown pouch thing on Dan's belt". Not wishing to burden a child with the futile details of the handgun ban I suggest we move on to Beryl the Peril. Tooled up as he is, try as he might, Desperate Dan cannot escape from the political correctness brigade - in the current issue Dan goes to buy some new boots, only to be offered ones made from "imitation elephant hide". Any of the older Dandy readers out there know what kind of pistol Dan packs? - despite his size, my guess is an ivory handled, nickel plated, .32 S&W. I've already asked the publishers the same question, also whether Dan has ever drawn his trusty pistol and in which issue - I'll post the reply.
