The Beano is a comic book for kids, which has been available every week for the past 65 years. I was first bought the Beano by my uncle when I was 9 years old, he bought it for me because he used to always read it when he was younger, as soon as I read that first comic I was hooked and for about 10 years I don’t think I missed an issue!

Dennis the Menace is still causing everyone including his long-suffering dad a headache and the favorite Bash Street Kids are still going strong, with some new characters doing their bit..I can't find the three bears with their bowls of mash and sausages which is ...
