Li'l Abner

Al Capp’s Li’l Abner returned for a second life in this 1950s revival from New Century Press, collecting and continuing the beloved newspaper strip’s adventures in comic book form. Running for 19 issues, the series kept Capp’s signature satirical humor and exaggerated art style front and center, chronicling the misadventures of the denizens of Dogpatch. This run matters as a direct, creator-driven extension of one of the most popular and culturally influential comic strips of the 20th century, preserved in the comic book format.
