Andy Fanton

Andy Fanton is a British comic strip creator, artist and writer who had his George vs Dragon comic strip published in Britain's long running children's comic The Dandy from October 2010 onwards.

He continued to appear in the Dandy with a strip called Boo!, which started after George Vs Dragon's initial 12-week run finished, from February 2011 to April 2011 plus a revamp of the 80's Dandy comic Harry And His Hippo which ran from March 2011 to April 2011, as part of "Strictly Come Laughing". Harry and His Hippo won the vote, ahead of Daredevil Dad, Tag Team Tastic and Phil's Finger.

Andy also publishes his own website fiction series; the Astonishing Adventures of Lord Likely, which has been running since 2007, along with his popular web comic, The Carrotty Kid, which got made into an animated pilot for ITV in 2004 by Cosgrove Hall Films.

However, the pilot of The Carrotty Kid never got transmitted due to ITV cutting back on new children's programming.
