This article about the sequential art form. See also Daily strip and Sunday strip. For the British comedy group, see The Comic Strip.

A comic strip is a short strip or sequence of drawings that tells a story. Drawn by a cartoonist, or an artist, such strips are published on a recurring basis (usually daily or weekly) in newspapers or on the Internet. In the UK and Europe they are also published within comic magazines, with a strip's story sometimes continuing over three pages or more. They usually communicate to the reader via speech balloons.

As the name implies, they can be humorous (as in "gag-a-day" strips like Beetle Bailey, Hi and Lois, or Hägar the Horrible). Soap-opera continuity strips (like Judge Parker or Little Orphan Annie) have serious story lines in serial form. They are, however, nonetheless known as "comics" – though the term "sequential art", coined by cartoonist Will Eisner, is also used.

Kenya: Opinion Polls Have Become Crude Tools of Manipulation (AllAfrica.com)
Tue, 04 Dec 2007 23:23:57 -0000
IF THERE IS A COUNTRY WHERE opinion polls should be banned, it is Kenya. When, as I have done before (DN, October 25), I argue that polls are more a tool for "political engineering" than for "social physics" as Auguste Comte envisaged, I raise real concern: Figures don't lie, but liars can figure.
