It's aimed at kids, yes, but about a third of it's readership are adult, judging by the pictures of parents and even OAPs which sometimes appear in the comic. Plus bear in mind, today's OAPs are the original readers - it's 65 years old, remember!

I had been reading the Beano regularly since 1994 up until recently, back when it was 35p, but there's no way I'm going to spend 65p on it nowadays. Although I sometimes pick up an issue now and again, especially this one as it was a 65th birthday spectacular.

It was all different when I was alive, all the Beano cost you was a sixpence and a jaunty smile -- and you still had change left over for a quarter of blackjacks.

Yeah, but you could only read it during certain hours because:
a) you had to share it with your 37 brothers and sisters, and
b) there was no electricity in the hole in the middle of the road that you lived in.

I used to read it from 1986-8. In them days it were 16p.
By 1990, it was 20p. Crazy to think that in just 13 years, the mag's price can go up by 45p. Put yourself in a time machine and you can buy three Beano 1990 mags instead of one!
