Remember when we got a newspaper every day/weekend delivered to us at our homes? I loved the comics. Nelly Bly and Dick Tracy were my favorites. Does anyone still get the paper? 1. Katzenjammer Kids (1897 to 2006) 2. Gasoline Alley (1918 to present) 3. Dick Tracy (1931 to present) 4. Brenda Starr, Reporter (1940-2011). They did a takeoff in Nelly Bly in my locality. 5. Denis the Menace (1951 to present) 6. Barney Google (1919 to present) 7. Little Orphan Annie ( 1924 to 2010) 8. Popeye (1929 to 1994) 9. Blondie (1930 to present) 10. Prince Valiant (1937 to present) 11. Beetle Bailey (1950 to present) 12. B.C. (1958 to present) I enjoyed just two of those. Saw some others in different formats.

Don't get the paper delivered anymore and cannot recall the last time that I bought one. Am I bad? Your list. I know most of them. I had no idea Popeye ended 30 years ago. Dennis the Menace, and Gnasher were born 25 miles from our home Pride of Scotland

I recognize all of them. I used to read the comics in The Daily News and I loved the two movies they made of Dennis the Menace,

@celticeagle I miss the Sunday comics. Loved getting the colored several page part of the paper to enjoy.

I remember all of those. I get a digital copy of the paper; but I don't read the comics anymore. I used to enjoy Beetle Bailey and B.C.
