for anyone who doesn’t know (where have you been, mars?) this happened last week...

oh no! Gnasher has stolen a rare dinosaur bone from the

national museum of scotland!

now, you miGht think that’s an awesome thinG for a

doG to do, but...

so, now the menace family are back in beanotown...

…then return it to

scotland and everything

will be back to normal!

we just need to find Gnasher and the bone…

well, you were wrong

about Gnasher makinG his

own way home! there’s no siGn

of him here!

i’ll Get bear Grylls on the

case – he’s Good at trackinG!

hi, 118 118! have you Got the number for bear Grylls?

you are bear Grylls! that’s lucky. can you help me find

a stolen dinosaur bone? you can! excellent! see you

later!

grrr!

your mum will love havinG bear Grylls

here – he’s the only Guy i know who would

eat her cookinG!

too impatient to wait until the end of the comic, dennis Goes to see

beanotown’s resident fossil hunter…

the siGn was riGht – you really

are ancient!

it’s the fossils that are ancient. what do you

want?

i knew i should have sent that

siGn back!

oh right! ancient fossils!

i thouGht it was, “indiana

bones, ancient fossil

collector.”

he’s probably crawlinG his way over ben nevis

just now.

he says he can’t Get here until near the

end of the comic.

The World’s Wildest Boy!

this is awful!

Gnasher’sin loads of trouble, and now he’s run off

with that dinosaur bone!

My dog, gnasher, stole a rare bone froM the national

MuseuM of scotland and i need help to

find hiM.

that’s my bone!

i found the bone – and the rest of the skeleton – in abyssinia in the 1930’s! the Mail on sunday ran a story on it. “Man

finds bones,” it said.

you found it in abyssinia? gnasher’s an AbyssiniAn Tripe

Hound!

…i thought second class Would haVe

been okay.

neVer again!

i Managed to saVe just one bone...

…Which i sold to the national

MuseuM of scotland!

yes!

the rest of that dinosaur Was scattered across beanotoWn. a shaMe, because it Was

a fierce beast!

so is gnasher!

its teeth Were razor sharp and there Were far too

Many for its Mouth!

ha-ha! that sounds

jusT like gnasher!

are you sure? i thought you only got mAssive coincidences

like that in things that are Made up, like

MoVies and soaps! not in real life!

MoneyWas a bit tight, so i decided to Mail

My dinosaur - and Myself - hoMe!

hoots, jings and other Words

people think We say in scotland!

From the skeleton, I learned that It

was hIt by a meteor whIle huntIng a sausagesaurus!

waIt a mInute! gnasher loves

sausages!

why was I born so tasty?

the abyssInIan trIpe hound sounds lIke It could be a descendant oF the

dInosaur I Found!

no, It doesn’t!

yes, he Is!

no, It won’t!

thanks For the help! I thInk I know

exactly where to look For the

FIrst pIece oF the puzzle!

hmph! kIds today – always runnIng oFF on quests to recover lost treasures.

at dennIs’s gran’s house…

okay, okay! I’m comIng!

gran! tell me that story about that thing you dug up

that time!

the chest oF cursed

aztec gold?

thIs Isn’t rIght!

have you lost

weIght?

and IF I FInd the rest oF

the skeleton, It’ll prove hIm

Innocent!

and that he’s not really In

trouble!

that would mean gnasher Is the

rightful owner oF the bone!

there was a real gnashersaurus?

well, IF we’re goIng to name

It, It should really be my...

we all thought It was great at first, but It wasn’t long beFore

we dIscovered that we couldn’t dIe…

…and In the moonlIght welooked lIke zombIes!
