Be it cave paintings in prehistoric Spain, hieroglyphics in Ancient Egypt, or manga in modern Japan, visual storytelling has been an important part of human expression throughout history. For more than a century, American comic strips have captivated audiences of all ages. With only a handful of panels – or one in some cases – talented cartoonists have been able to create stories on a daily or weekly basis. However, only a handful of creators have completely changed comics in the process.
Whether they specialize in slapstick humor, romance, or high adventure, comic strips offer something for everyone. While creators are always coming up with excellent new strips, some of the best were in newspapers at the very beginning.
