Dennis the Menace

Dennis (UK) and Dennis (US)

Dennis the Menace is the name of two completely different and unrelated comic strips that both coincidentally debuted in March 1951, one in the UK and one in the US. On the same day, even. Both strips feature mischievous youngsters named Dennis, both of whom own a dog, and both of whom are Brats with Slingshots. Weird, eh?
