 I'll be doing some posts on The Dandy.and focusing on some of the panels in large size. Some brilliant artists worked for The Dandy..and Bill is one of them..


The Dandy 1968

I love the different poses of the spider..also some great expressions on the crowds faces...each different..also the laughing chuckling Punch in the corner is a good contrast to the fright.
The crowd have life has some are running away already...its not just a load of faces with the same shock expression.

 Quite tricky to draw showing a spider run..also great the different running positions of the runners..a good low angle to show the spider better..and the tumbled out of the way children..
 I like the space on the panel Bill leaves...



This has to be my favourite panel..
