Dandy to go online only

In December The Dandy is seventy-five years old. DC Thomson have chosen that moment to end the print edition, which had seen sales fall to about 8,000 a week. It will, however, continue in an online format. There will also continue to be a printed Dandy annual.
I’m not sure what I think about that. The nostalgia buff in me sees it as a sad day, but perhaps this is the future for comics.
