Happy 70th THE BEANO

I felt i had to put in a plug for this iconic slice of British art culture and history.
Probably the worlds second oldest comic book title in print, it started in july 1938 only weeks after Action Comics. and as originally fortnightly then weekly must hold the record for number of issues by a mile.
Any other fans of Desperate Dan , Dennis the menace and the rest of the gang

Read it when I was a kid.

65

Used to read Beano back in the day, had the animated show on tape too.

We never knew back then that Dennis was a Saiyen name.

Wow it feels like 70 years since I've read Dennis the Menace..... or Roger the the Dodger.... or Minnie the Minx.....
