Bea

Bea made her entrance in the pages of The Beano in 1999, brought to life by the talented Nigel Parkinson for one of British comics' most beloved and long-running institutions. She keeps wonderfully chaotic company — sharing pages with icons like Dennis the Menace and his faithful hound Gnasher — placing her right at the heart of The Beano's irreverent, anarchic spirit. Though her catalog footprint is modest, appearing across The Beano and The Beano Annual in the early 2000s, there's a special charm in discovering the quieter corners of a comic this rich in character and history.
