From the Archive: Up to no Good Art Print

Up to No Good – Beano Archive art print

Amazing full colour piece taken from the front cover of the first ever Dennis annual, dated 1956. This was the first annual dedicated to a single character's adventures, 18 years before Dennis had even graduated to become the cover star of the weekly Beano comic.

This picture demonstrates the evolution of David “Davey” Law’s style to portray a more elongated character design. Gone is the stocky representation of Dennis, replaced with a looser, more gangly art style. Dennis’s last dedicated annual was in 2011, giving his annual a 55 year run, which is longer than any other individual character annual!
