Pansy Potter The Strongman's Daughter was a comic strip in The Beano, featuring Pansy Potter, a really strong girl. First appearing in the issue dated 17 December 1938. Around 1949 Jimmy Clark took up drawing the Strip, and it became known as Pansy Potter in Wonderland. As the name suggested, Pansy Potter no longer lived in what we can safely call Beanotown, but instead was living in this fantasy world called Wonderland which was also home to Humpty Dumpty and other Classic Characters. The character was later revived and reappeared in the first issue of Sparky, dated 23 January 1965. The strip was originally drawn in the Beano by Hugh McNeill, but John Geering drew the Sparky revival. During the war years, a number of different artists with their own distinct styles drew the strip. The strip also returned to The Beano in the early 1990s, drawn by Barry Glennard. The title is a rhyming couplet when read in the Scottish accent of the Beano's Dundee home town.
