About the series
Dell’s The Funnies (1929–1930) was a landmark 36-issue comic series that helped pioneer the format of original comic material in the United States, moving beyond reprinted newspaper strips. Most closely associated with the talents of Victor Pazmiño, VEP, and Tack Knight, the title offered a mix of humor and adventure features that defined early comic book storytelling. Its significance lies in being one of the first regularly published comic books, laying groundwork for the medium’s Golden Age.
