Beetle Bailey

Beetle Bailey (1995–present) is a five-issue comic series from Meteor Press, updating the long-running newspaper strip for a 1990s audience. The series captures the classic misadventures of the laid-back private and his bumbling Camp Swampy comrades, with an emphasis on the gentle, character-driven humor that has defined the property for decades. While not a radical reinvention, it represents a notable attempt to translate Mort Walker’s iconic, slapstick military satire into the direct-market comic format.
