The ultimate birthday bash for Britain's cheekiest legend! This year, Beanotown's most iconic mischief maker hits a major milestone: Dennis the Menace turns 10 (for the 75th time!). For generations, he's been tearing through the streets of Beanotown - catapult primed, red-and-black stripes blazing - encouraging kids everywhere to bend the rules, dodge the dull stuff, and embrace their brilliantly bonkers selves. Alongside Gnasher, his loyal (and permanently hungry) Abyssinian wire-haired tripehound, Dennis guarantees that life in Beanotown is always loud, lively, and completely out of control. And honestly. would we have it any other way? To celebrate this mega-menacing milestone, Beano brings together 68 pages of pure comic chaos from writer Nigel Auchterlounie and illustrator Nigel Parkinson - the dream team behind Dennis's wildest adventures. Packed with fun comic strips, high-octane humour, and plenty of gnashing, it's the ultimate collection for fans new and old. Get ready: chaos comes with stripes!
