Dennis has come a long way since he burst into newsprint, his hair in his eyes and a trail of jam behind him.Here in DENNIS THE MENACE RIDES AGAIN is the little guy at his irrepressible best-a professional tyrant, a sophisticate in short pants, an old hand at puncturing large egos, a remorseless operator with a streak of bravura a mile wide. And as much as we (and millions of others) love him for his high-jinks and high spirits, we love him even more for doing-with incredible aplomb-the things we never dare to do ourselves.
Henry King "Hank" Ketcham was an American cartoonist who created the Dennis the Menace comic strip, writing and drawing it from 1951 to 1994, when he retired from drawing the daily page and took up painting full time in his studio at his home. He received the Reuben Award for the strip in 1953. The strip continues today in the hands of other artists.
“Further misadventures of America’s no. 1 expert on how to lose neighbors and annoy parents.”
Dennis truly manages to innocently get into so much trouble it’s almost unbelievable but brings such a sense of humor to life that Ketcham truly makes it all fun and laughter! Dennis makes me happy!
