DENNIS HAS SNOWBALLS - WALTER HAS NO - ER, LET'S LEAVE THAT THERE, ACTUALLY...

One can never have enough of DENNIS The MENACE in my opinion.  Of course, I mean when he was funny, not the anaemic, cutesy-looking, wimpy impersonator who's taken his place in recent years.  (Sigh.)  Never mind - at least we have nearly 20 years worth of classic Dennis strips as drawn by his original artist DAVEY LAW to enjoy - like the one which graces this very post.

Hard as it may be for some people to believe, I know of one comics collector who has never cared much for the exploits of the indomitable Dennis.  Doesn't like humour strips about 'rough boy' apparently.  The irony involved in his being the living embodiment of WALTER The SOFTY is obviously lost on him.  We rugged, manly, he-men type collectors can look down on his effete wimpishness with well-deserved contempt.  We're Menace fans and proud of it.
