This September mark 32 years since DFG co-publishers Dan Graves and Darryl Andrews first met. In the early days of 1976, when the pair were in Grade One at Beverley Acres Public School, they found themselves seated next to each other in Ms. Gutzman's class. On the first day of school Darryl looked over at Dan and said, "Want to be best friends?" Dan's affirmative answer resulted in 32 years of continued friendship and what has become the greatest partnership of all-time in Canadian Comics. In order to celebrate their 32 years of friendship, DFG is proud to release, in a limited, numbered edition, this never-before published personal sketch drawn by Darryl in 1984 for Dan.
The caption reads:
"To my best friend...
DANNY GRAVES
for his friendship over the years!
for his friendship over the years!
-Darryl Todd Andrews
(your pal forever!)
The drawing depicts Darryl's famous creation, Captain Nepto, running in with the sunrise, saying:
"Sure looks like it's gonna be a great day (for DFG)!!
At the official release of the print at DFG corporate HQ, President & Co-Publisher Dan Graves said, "Thank you, Darryl for your friendship over the years. It means more to me than I can say. Indeed, it is always a great day for DFG!"
