Comic Book/Strip Articles
Comic strips are a form of visual entertainment that a lot of people enjoy. The first comic strips appeared in Germany in 1865. It was about two boys who are getting punished for always getting into mischief. Comics strips gradually increased in popularity and began to appear regularly in American newspapers in the beginning of the 20th century. This popularity has paved the way for the creation of comic books.
It is hard to trace the history of comic books, as many countries seem to have come up with the idea independently of one another. In Britain, they go back to the late 18th century, and in Japan the late 17th. If we’re talking about the worldwide explosion of comic book popularity in the format we know today, however, it can be most easily traced back to 1930s America, especially the beginning of the Superman series in 1938.
