Hagar the Horrible R-09Â is a comic book published by King Features Comics. The issue date is 1977 and it was a free give-away.
It broke all records when it was launched on Feb. 4, 1973, becoming the fastest growing comic strip ever.
The strip was created by Hi and Lois artist Dik Browne in his basement art studio/laundry room in Connecticut. The strip's title was the family nickname for Dik Browne, and the characters were loosely based on Dik's family and friends.
The little red-bearded Viking has appeared in advertisements for IBM, Mug Root Beer, Skol Ale and in the opening titles for the TV show "Caroline in the City,"Â which starred actress Lea Thompson as a successful female cartoonist. Hagar has appeared on his own CBS special and is featured in Universal's Islands of Adventure: Toon Lagoon theme park.

Quincy 01 R-14 (King Features/1973 Series)*VG/VG+
QUINCY was a comic strip by Ted Shearer. The King Features strip, which ran from 1970 to 1986, was in the tradition of SKIPPY and LITTLE ORPHAN ANNIE - a scrappy kid who is pushing to better himself; sometimes falling on his face, but always philosophically optimistic. QUINCY chronicled a group of multi-cultural kids in a New York City neighborhood. They were part of the "Supplementary Reading Program developed and editor by Richard Guttenberg, Dr. Anne Mueser and Sherman H. Saiger." So, it may have been distributed as art of a school program. There are a couple of QUINCY comic books, and a TIM TYLER'S LUCK book in the series, which all seemed to feature King Features properties. Each comic also has a featured co-star, in their own, separate story. With the QUINCY books, you have HENRY and Hamlet, HAGAR's son.
