English.
Dennis the Menace (known as Dennis the Menace and Gnasher since 1970) is a long-running comic strip featured in The Beano children's comic, published by D. C. Thomson & Co. Ltd, Dundee, Scotland, in the United Kingdom. The strip first appeared in issue 452, released on 15 March 1951 (cover dated for the off-sale date of 17 March), and is the longest running strip in the comic. From issue 1678 onwards (dated 14 September 1974) Dennis managed to grab the front cover, replacing Biffo the Bear, and has been there ever since.

And, the answer is… (drumroll)… YES! Dennis the menace is Both an American AND a British comic character! There were two separate and independent characters who were first published simultaneously.
Big coincidence, I know, but the comics are full of ‘em. Go to Toonopedia and you will see the separate articles about the two different mischievous sprites name Dennis.

Dennis the Menace denotes either of two cartoon characters. Coincidentally, both characters premiered in comic strip form in the same week — one in the United States, and one in the United Kingdom.
Both feature a boy with a tendency to break rules, although the tone of the two cartoons is rather different. The U.S. Dennis tends to cause trouble more by accident, while the UK version is straightforwardly malicious: similarly both Dennises have a scruffy pet dog, both of which usually help them in their adventures. Both Dennises even have friends called 'Curly'
