From the Archives: Desperate Dan’s Pumpkin Panic

Dan may just be a country bumpkin, but he's a big hit as a scary pumpkin!

Desperate Dan: Dandy No. 2711, November 6th, 1993

This classic Desperate Dan strip comes from the Halloween 1993 issue of the Dandy. This was illustrated by Ken H. Harrison, who was one of several artists working on Desperate Dan, as well as other Beano and Dandy strips.
