Beanotown: BeanoMAX rises to the challenge for Sport Relief!

BeanoMAX rises to the challenge for Sport Relief!

16 February, 11:00 PM

BeanoMAX no. 37 hits the shelves on 18th February, 2010!

March's BeanoMAX is a special Sport Relief spectacular and comes with 4 mega gifts – an inflatable rugby ball, Sport Relief stickers and desktop football game and 32-page mini-mag! And all for the max value £2.99!

BeanoMAX is pulling up its socks for a Sport Relief special edition!

Inside, JLS meet their musical match at a Sport Relief concert in the ultimate Battle of the Bands. They may have survived Simon Cowell, but how will they cope with Dennis the Menace and his Dinmakers?

See it on your desktop!

ALESHA DIXON rises to the challenge and discovers her inner Minx when she becomes Minnie's celeb best pal in a Sport Relief Hula Hoop event – whether she wants to or not! And the Bash Street Kids get a surprise football master class from MICHAEL OWEN!

Alesha Dixon and Stuart Broad meet some famous Beano faces!

STUART BROAD also turns up for a spot of good sportsmanship with Roger the Dodger... well, it's not exactly good sportsmanship from the Dodger, to be honest!

PLUS the usual puzzles, jokes and competitions – it's not to be missed!

Also with this issue is an awesome 32 page mini magazine packed with even more stars from sport and screen who are all supporting Sport Relief 2010. They have joined forces to reveal their childhood Beano heroes and put together THE BEST EVER BEANO!

Amir Khan said: "Dennis reminds me of how I was when I was a kid... hyperactive!"

Lawrence Dallaglio said: "My favourite characters are the team from Bash Street! I've seen some cauliflower ears on a rugby field but nothing comes close to the ugliness of Plug!"

The Sport Relief Weekend is taking place from Friday 19th March to Sunday 21st March 2010 and it'll be three jam-packed days of energy, entertainment and events. The best way to take part is to enter the Sainsbury's Sport Relief Mile on Sunday 21st March.

Have your say!

@Lewis
You should definately join my club. Its aim is to put biffo back in the beano. No info required, just tell me via the comments section and i’ll give you your club number A.S.A.P! This goes for everyone.
@Da Tomster
It’s quite tricky to find it. The best places to get it are sainsburys, W.H.Smiths or a good newsagent.
@Everyone
This is the time of year for the Biffo Quiz. Throughout next week(20-27 feb) a competition to find the 2nd biggest biffo fan will be held. Each member will be asked a question on monday. I will collect all answers on tuesday evening. The members with correct answers will go through to the next round. I will ask an extra-tough question and the first person to answer correctly wins.
good luck!

Beano MAX was great this issue! Loved Little Plum, The 3 Bears, Roger the Dodger and Calamity James! Dennis was OK, but no menacing… And JLS looked quite freaky! Didn’t really like Bask Street Kids, Billy Whizz or Minnie the Minx… I enjoyed Auntie Clockwise and Wallace and Gromit as well… My ideal Beano MAX would be….
