Dennis the Menace vs. Everybody

A one-shot special from Gold Medal Books, Dennis the Menace vs. Everybody (1971) pits the beloved, trouble-prone five-year-old against a gallery of familiar authority figures from his classic newspaper strip. Artist and creator Hank Ketcham brings his signature, energetic linework to this single-issue showdown, where Dennis’s well-meaning chaos collides with parents, neighbors, and Mr. Wilson. Though brief, this comic captures the timeless, mischievous spirit of Ketcham’s long-running creation.
