The Beano 3727 review


(Please can someone upload the cover)

This is what I think so you can disagree.


Dennis the Menace and Gnasher by Nigel Parkinson and Nigel Auchterlounie: 7/10 I wasn't a huge fan of the strip this week as it was pretty much The Three Billy Goats Gruff but with a few minor changes. Though it got better at the end and the artwork, as usual, was great!

The Nibblers by Stu Munro and Hunt Emerson: 6.5/10 The Nibblers is definitely improving. I hope it's better next week.

Pansy Potter by Kev F Sutherland: 10/10 This is one of my favourite mini-strips ever and it's only on it's first week!

How To Train Your Parents by Stu Munro: 8/10 Great artwork and a great joke!

Minnie the Minx by Nigel Parkinson: 10/10 :) Very funny and great to see the return of Chester. I hope he is in many more strips to come! 

The Numskulls by Nigel Auchterlounie: 7.5/10 I still prefer the Numskulls before the 75th aniversary. But this version is growing on me and it's very good every week. Though this strip isn't as good as last weeks Numskulls.

Ball Boy by Alexander Matthews: 9/10 Now this is more like it! This Ball Boy strip is very funny.

Tricky Dicky by Laura Howell: 7/10 Yes, I find this strip better since he's not in school anymore but it isn't as good as Tricky Dicky a few months ago.

Rasher by Lew Stringer: 10/10 These mini-strips are amazing. I would love to see Rasher as a full page but it may not be as funny.  

Animals Crossing by Stu Munro: 6/10 This was very slightly funny. But a good thing was that it replaced Angel Face which was even worse.

The Bash Street Kids by David Sutherland: 8/10 This was very funny and Wilfred appeared much more and set off the final balloon but 'Erbert didn't appear at all and Smiffy only appeared in the final panel.

Number 13 by Alan Ryan: 8/10 I think that Number 13 was funnier as a mini-strip but I still enjoy these strips.

Billy Whizz by Wilbur Dawbarn: 7.5/10 now that Blilly's quest to find a spice is over I hope that next week's issue is funnier though last weeks with the naked man was very funny.

Bananaman by Kev F Sutherland and Wayne Thompson: 10/10 Kev's writing is hilarious and Wayne's drawing is amazing with a funny storyline but Bananaman didn't actually appear.

Little Plum by Hunt Emerson and Claire Bartlett: 9/10 This, for me, is the funniest Little Plum story yet.

Karate Sid by Paul Palmer: 4/10 This had great artwork but it's not as good anymore. I hope it guests better.

Grandpa by Steve Beckett: 3/10 I liked the Grandpa stories in the 80s but these are just terrible. 

Smudge by Alan Ryan: 10/10 So far there hasn't been a rubbish Smudge. I hope Alan Ryan keeps it up!

Roger the Dodger by Jamie Smart: 10/10 This kept me laughing all day and Jamie Smart is a fantastic artist.

Gnasher and Gnipper by Claire Bartlett and Barrie Appleby: 8/10 This is a good strip and it has great artwork

Thanks and if you disagree that's ok
