| So ends Dicky in the Magic Forest. Iread the entire run, starting in issue 11. Ireally enjoyed it because it was so strange and unlike everything else in the magazine. And that is certainly why it ended, they are clearly going for an older demographic. Especially with the "headlight" covers a few issues back. |
