They cannot believe that the DFC will be no more. It was a centrepiece of our week; I read it with them a lot and they got into the habit of spending hours every week themselves surrounded by all the back issues of the DFC spread around them on the floor going back over their favourite stories. I could see it becoming a major part of their lives and could tell that they would remember the time spent with the comic forever. And I just can't accept that so soon after it began it is to end. Is there nothing that can be done? Could we not organise a massive independent buyout by the readers? Something? ANYTHING? My kids are reeling. They cannot believe that the DFC will be no more.
