Toytopia is running this

Also a drawing contest by toytopiaworld inside The Beano to draw a brand new toy of your design to win VIP tickets to the place..

A new kind of Les Pretend...But this guy is in the fantasy of Wrestling! like how the Mum is so used to it!!!! Its interesting to see dangerous things in The Beano again..of course kids can see this is fantasy and over the top..

Its nice the blue added to the logo..and its always fun having characters popping out of the o!

Its always nice these strips showing old characters...of course I would love to see it has a full page..

from Beano 18th July 2015

It's been great this new artist...and bringing back detail and of course Calamity James.. 

Spot the squelchies!! David Sutherland still drawing brilliant Bash Street kids...hes been working for The Beano from 1960!

Great to see this character back and love seeing fantasy blurred with reality..Nigel Parkinson

Same with this character adventure Tim...hope he gets to do this has two pages...and longer stories..love Alan Ryan's work love the longer stories on Dennis the Menace and the fantasy it goes into sometimes...this is a one off..But we seen Walter's Dad become Mayor and the latest is Gnasher has gone missing..

 enjoying the files of Beanotown by Nigel Parkinson

Not the Buster comic character of the 90's...But a reader can ask to be made into a comic character from their nickname...again love the strangeness and fantasy element..

 Great to see Little Plum and Baby-Face in 25th April 2015 issue..quite a lot of the pages come from this comic..

So these are my highlights of this years... The Beano..

Of course Commando has had more issue numbers But is different to a comic being a comic library size and features just one story it came out in 1961 ..hopefully Commando is also a record breaker too...The Home Of Heroes since 1961 — Four stories of action and adventure every two weeks

Be the star in a comic! Wham! comic and today's Beano!

The latest Beano is giving you the chance to be the star!

 Also its nice its on the back cover and drawn by Hunt Emerson. 

A lovely new feature!

 Wham! comic drawn by Mike Lacey also did a similar thing in 1967.
You could star in The Tiddlers!! It was done in a nice creative way!

Hunt Emerson's Vulture Club The Dandy April 5th 2003..

I like Hunt's work..you can tell he liked old American comic strips like Krazy Kat and Popeye by Segar for example. Its a real treat seeing his two pager of Fred's Bed in The Beano today...
well worth collecting comics with his work in it.
Buy The Beano now and see what you are missing..
