Sunday Oldies

 Though the printed newspaper seems to be declining the Sunday Funnies are still alive and well, at least so far. Today's post is going to look at some of the longest running comics. Gasoline Alley (1918-present), Barney Google and Snuffy Smith (1919-present) fun fact googly eyes came from Barney Google, Blondie (1930-present), Dick Tracy (1931-present), Prince Valiant (1937-present), Beetle Bailey (1950-present), Dennis the Menace (1951-present), and B.C. (1958-present).  All of the strips have coped in different way with the characters aging and other modernizations but their longevity speaks for itself.
