I just learned today that there isn't one true Dennis the Menace. There's an entirely different Dennis the Menace who is better known in the UK, but both versions of Dennis coincidentally debuted in March of 1951.

So interesting, I didn't know the US version until now , definitely was a big Beano fan growing up and Dennis the Menace was huge over there

I've seen the UK version from time to time, but never realized he was named Dennis the Menace, nor did I realize he was from the UK.

It's pretty interestingly violent that they're both crackerjack shots with a slingshot.
