 She had some similarities with Baxendale's earlier Minnie the Minx character in "The Beano".When he had been drawing Minnie, he had concentrated on experimenting with facial expressions and character traits.By the time he began working on "Bad Penny" his drawing style had matured, with an equal concentration on developing a zany but tight storyline, less emphasis on close-ups of facial expressions, but retaining the essentials needed to put over a character's own personality traits.
