Page "Comic strip" Paragraph 18

Newspaper comic strips come in two different types: daily strips and Sunday strips.

Most newspaper comic strips are syndicated ; a syndicate hires people to write and draw a strip and then distributes it to many newspapers for a fee.

A few newspaper strips are exclusive to one newspaper.

For example, the Pogo comic strip by Walt Kelly originally appeared only in the New York Star in 1948 and was not picked up for syndication until the following year.
