Hägar: The Adventures of Hägar the Horrible

Plot

Hägar the Horrible 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.
