A comic strip is a story told in a series if pictures published in a newspaper. The New York Daily Graphic was the first newspaper to feature a comic strip. It started on 11 September 1875 with Professor Tigwissel’s Burglar Alarm. The first regular strip was The Yellow Kid, which began in a supplement of the New York World on 5 May 1895. A syndicated comic strip is one that appears in more than one newspaper. Some appear in hundreds of papers all over the world. In the UK, weekly collections of cartoon strips and jokes began to appear in the 1880s and 1890s. Comics such as Dandy (1937) and Beano (1938) are still published today. From the 1890s in the USA, series of cartoon strips began to appear in newspapers and were syndicated nationwide. Katzehjammer Kids, which was first published in 1897, still appears in many newspapers and magazines.
