Mr Bean, the character played by Rowan Atkinson, is set to take over the children’s comic magazine Beano as a guest editor, according to multiple reports. The crossover places Mr Bean in the world of Beano alongside several long-running characters.
Outlets describe the collaboration as a “takeover” featuring Mr Bean working with or appearing alongside Dennis the Menace, the Bash Street Kids, and Minnie the Minx. The reports do not describe specific storylines, but they frame the event as a special issue or editorial stint that blends the slapstick character’s look and persona with Beano’s existing cast.
The articles also note that Mr Bean is closely associated with the period in which Atkinson first brought the character to television, referenced as running between 1990 and 1995. While the tone differs slightly by outlet, all accounts align on the core details: Mr Bean becomes guest editor of Beano and appears in crossover content with multiple established Beano characters.
