He is always eagerly following him around, accompanying him while Dennis is running, or riding his bike or skateboard. His wife's status is unknown; she is never seen in the comics, although she is mentioned four times—twice when, thanks to Dennis, Alice finds out Henry destroyed his Christmas gift (a tie) from his mother in law; [48] another time a furious Alice finds out that Henry had thrown his mother-in-law's gift (a tie) into the trash.George and his wife Martha are childless, but a short, tow-headed boy next door has filled the vacuum, driving poor George almost to distraction but bringing much-needed love into the otherwise quiet life of the Wilsons.

The most recent film adaptation, A Dennis the Menace Christmas was released to DVD on November 6, 2007.Alice Mitchell, née Aberdeen is Dennis' stay-at-home mother, who is usually the reassuring figure to whom Dennis can run when things get too overwhelming, ready to greet him with a warm hug. We honour Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' continuous connection to Country, waters, skies and communities. Gina Gillotti is a fiercely independent young Italian-American girl, on whom Dennis is mostly unaware that he has a crush.

Targeted to an audience of younger children, the series runs each weekday and is remarkably successful.

Alice's father is a short, debonair widower, with a bounce in his step, a twinkle in his eye, and an enthusiastic attitude.Ketcham had half of the comic book rights purchased by Stan Lee and Marvel Comics, so they were able to produce a new series of Dennis the Menace comic books. He promoted two public-service messages through comic books, titled Dennis Takes a Poke at Poison and Coping With Family Stress. In the comics, the Mitchell family lives in a two-story house at the fictional address of 2251 Pine Street. Looking over his father's shoulder most of his childhood, Scott was intrigued and decided, This is the life for me. After a welcome cry through the window, he usually quietly enters through the back door to enjoy a sample of whatever has just emerged from Martha's oven and chats with the gracious hostess until the retired grump brusquely ushers him out the front door.
