Uncle Wiggily's Adventures

Uncle Wiggily, a gentlemanly rabbit, encounters domestic chaos when asked to clean windows. This Sunday strip unfolds across nine panels with sequential action and recurring characters—Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy, Grandpa Sorcery, and various animal neighbors. The humor derives from slapstick accidents and Uncle Wiggily's polite misadventures. Howard R. Garis wrote this long-running series; Lang Campbell illustrated. The strip exemplifies the Sunday comic page format: multiple rows of bordered panels, speech balloons conveying dialogue and narration, and a linear narrative arc. Such strips, syndicated nationwide in newspapers, established the visual and narrative conventions that would define American comics for decades.
