This is Oxfordshire reports that David Fickling is hoping to relaunch children’s comic The DFC, which launched in March 2008 and reached issue 43 before it was forced to close earlier this year. Fickling said, “I have been contacted by lots of teachers who loved the comic and classes of children have also written letters to say how much they miss it. I would like to tap into that support from primary schools to attract backing from organisations like the National Literacy Trust. … We need to learn from our mistakes and make something even better next time round. … I would love to see it reopen in the spring of next year, but it is not a foregone conclusion.”
