Bully Beef and Chips

' ''YAROO! OOYAH! HELP!

'these were but three of the milder exclamations yelped out by BULLY BEEF, after recieving his just dessertsusually in the posterior, after his brawny misdeeds backfire on him, after the usual diet of dirty tricks have been unleashed on all-round nice guy CHIPS''' in the opening frames.

BULLY BEEF and CHIPS is without doubt one of the major long-running success stories within Dandy's history, it's universal premise of a bullying baddie being perhaps all-too-familar to many readers of all ages. Bully Beef [or 'Beefy' as he is often 'lovingly' dubbed'] was an oddly sadistic specimen, who delighted in the often brutal---and always unprovoked--treatment and tauntings of the undeserving Chips, and the slapstick encounters invariably ended up with the tables being turned on the anti-social Beefy, with a typical final frame depicting a laughing, triumphant Chips giggling harmoniously, as painful, but justifiable [in the context of the cavortings] punishment is dished out to Bully Beef as stars of pain fly from his rump-end.

Beefy had parents that definately 'gave birth' to him: his dad is a middle-aged version of the young Beefy, but with a pot-belly and Friar Tuck-like hairdo. Even Beefy's mum resembles an older version of the young bully in drag [!]
