The last really popular... Calvin and Hobbes? That is a POV issue. What about the Boondocks for example?

I agree. Get Fuzzy is another example. I'll make the change in the article. Rick Norwood 15:17, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Since this is a stub, and in the absence of verifiable sources, references, citations seems to allow a certain degree of personal observation and guesses, I'm thinking it might be appropriate to revise just a little of the early section along these lines:

      "The Yellow Kid, about a character who was officially given the Irish-sounding name 'Mickey
      Dugan,'is generally accepted as the first comic strip. [Creator R. F. Outcault may have been 
      unwilling to draw stereotypical Irish children; in any event,]the 'Yellow Kid' was a 
      racist picture of boy who appeared to be Asian, wearing a bright yellow shirt."

The opinion expressed in brackets is admittedly sheer speculation on my part, so I wouldn't insist on its retention . .
