"Dennis the Menace" was inspired in October of 1950 by Hank's first wife, Alice Mahar, when she burst into the room and shouted, "Your son is a menace!".

Their four year old son, Dennis, had wrecked his bedroom in lieu of his nap.

By May of 1953, thirty million readers throughout the US

-and 52 other countries- were howling at his antics.
