“The Sunday Comics is the full-color comic strip section carried in most American newspapers. Many newspaper readers called this section the Sunday funnies, the funny papers or simply the funnies. The first US newspaper comic strips appeared in the late 19th century, closely allied with the invention of the color press. In America, the popularity of color comic strips sprang from the newspaper war between Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer.” (Wikipedia)
Back in the 60's, I always thought that some enterprising newspaper should have featured a rock & roll comic strip in their Sunday edition. It would have been a unique addition to the Sunday Comics!
