Top 5 Newspaper Comics of All-Time
"Family Circus" creator Bil Keane passed away today at the age of 89. "Keane, who started drawing the one-panel cartoon featuring Billy, Jeffy, Dolly, P.J. and their parents in February 1960, died Tuesday at age 89. His comic strip is featured in nearly 1,500 newspapers across the country." (The Associated Press) I started thinking about what my favorite "funnies" are. Here are my top 5. What are yours?
