Beano artist dies 19:54 - Jan 19 with 1742 viewsdmm

A bit of my childhood, and I'm sure many others on here, has sadly gone.

David Sutherland, who drew Dennis the Menace and the Bash Street Kids for the Beano for over 60 years, has died.

Used to get the Beano delivered every week, had several hundred from the 70’s, my mum took them to the tip without asking me if I still wanted them.

I have a very similar story to that. I’d love to still have that comic collection - my favourite comic ever, by a mile; a fantastic part of being a kid.

Did I ever mention that I was in Minder?

Wonderful woman that she is, Mrs Boston once cleaned out my closet and disposed of a "manky old ripped in a couple of places", skull and crossbones badge on one lapel, PIL on the other, Marlon Brandoesque leather.
Shrinking her favourite sweater in the dryer a couple of weeks later was a total accident.

Also a Beano man. Great days.
