History Page 2

I said I'd post regularly on the Dandy pages I produce and here's another in the series. Once again, although I write, illustrate and colour the pages, they insist on the lettering and balloon placements being done in-house.

This one deals with historical facts about William the conqueror: Facts like, the king of France thought he resembled a pregnant woman or that he was too big to fit into his own coffin and actually exploded when his soldiers tried to force him in...Gross, but the kids lap this kind of stuff up; I know I did when I was a kid

Enjoy
