Bea (Dennis The Menace)
Beatrice "Bea" Menace is a fictional character from the British comic magazine ''The Beano''. She was born in issue 2931 (introduced by David Parkins) and is the baby sister of Dennis the Menace. She appears frequently in her brother's comic strip, but would receive comic strips of her own to star in, including a crossover comic strip with Ivy the Terrible. She is very flatulent and often farts. She uses her farts as a way of menacing. Physical appearance Bea's appearance is extremely similar to her elder brother's in that she sports short jet-black messy hair and a behind the nose grin. She is a toddler who wears a striped yellow and black onesie with a short ponytail with a yellow hair band to match. After the 2009 re-launch of ''Dennis and Gnasher'', eyelashes were added to her appearance and she became far more baby-like in not only looks but also personality. David Parkins had always intended that the character would be called "Bea" (short for Beatrice), but the comic ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Gnasher
Gnasher () is a fictional comic strip character that appears in the British comic magazine ''The Beano''. He is the pet dog of Dennis the Menace, who meets him in 1968's issue 1362, and is also the star of three spin-off comic strips. Gnasher is considered just as iconic as his owner as both have been the stars of many children's television programming and are the unofficial mascots of ''The Beano''. Gnasher reached nationwide news in the 1980s after he disappeared from the magazine for seven weeks, returning with his six newborn puppies, but usually interacts with his son Gnipper. Development Although Dennis the Menace was shown with a terrier in his first story, he would not meet Gnasher for 17 years. Dennis' artist Davey Law decided to give his character a dog companion but struggled to give the dog a perfect design, inspired by DC Thomson writer Jim Fowler mentioning reading a newspaper story about pets looking like their owners. Ian Gray suggested Law should "draw Dennis ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Gag-a-day Comics
A gag-a-day comic strip is the style of writing comic cartoons such that every installment of a strip delivers a complete joke or some other kind of artistic statement. It is opposed to story or continuity strips, which rely on the development of a story line across a sequence of the installments. Most syndicated comics are of this type.''The Art of Cartooning & Illustration'', 2014, p.98/ref> Another term for this distinction is non-serial (gag-a-day) vs. serial strips. Compared to single-panel cartoons ("gag panels"), gag-a-day comic strips can deliver a better timing for the narrative of a joke. The distinction between continuity and gag-a-day strip may be blurred: a continuous story may still be delivered in the gag-a-day format.
