This DIGIT 110 group project focused on the digital encoding and presentation of a historical comic series. Our team encoded Volume #58 of the Dennis the Menace comic series into a structured, web-based format.
Dennis the Menace is a comic strip created by Hank Ketcham that debuted on March 12, 1951. As of December 1, 2023, the series remains in continuous publication. The strip is currently written and illustrated by Marcus Hamilton (weekdays), Ron Ferdinand (Sundays), and Scott Ketcham, and is distributed by King Features Syndicate to over 1,000 newspapers in 48 countries and 19 languages.
The goal of this project was to explore digital humanities workflows, structured web design, and accessibility-conscious presentation while preserving the integrity of the original comic format.
