| Star Wars by Russ Manning (0755-) 1st Appearance March 11, 1979 - Russ Manning was already known to be a master at his craft when he signed on to adapt the Star Wars story to Sunday Panel. The space opera was naturally adaptive to comics, thanks to it's serialistic style. That style included short-scened cliff-hanger action which Manning made sure he put into his adaptation. The result was a strip that was very true to the essence of the movie, which wasn't too shabby. The stars, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Darth Vader and the rest came to life on paper to a greater detail than could be done on the screen. The market for the Star Wars strip is good. Considering it's age and the popularity of the movie, the strip was collected by more than the normal comics enthusiast, so supply is good. Collectors look for vertical quarters or tabs when available. | ||||

| Steve Canyon by Milton Caniff (0760-) 1st Appearance January 19, 1947 - Steve Canyon was the creation of MIlton Caniff, the master of adventure cartooning. Caniff was well-known for his earlier creation, Terry & the Pirates, when he left that strip to begin over again with Steve Canyon. The plot-line for Steve Canyon was very similar to the earlier Terry offering, Adventure and mystery mostly in the far-east. Steve Canyon would stay close to the military, participating in all of the conflict that America would find herself in through the 50's and 60's. He would have his lovelife with the many women that meandered through the storylines. The constant throughout the run was the plotting and artwork of Caniff. Caniff used his ghosts quite often, but never drifted totally off the day-to-day work of the strip. As a result, the quality of the strip was as strong in it's 40th year as it was in its first. The market for Steve Canyon is strong, but thankfully that is offset by a strong supply line of the strips. The carraige of the strip was extensive through the majority of the strip, so good example are not too difficult to find. Collectors look for storylength groups when available. | ||||

| Strange As It Seems by John Hix (0765-) - The explosion in popularity of Ripley's Believe it or Not in the 1930's gave impetus for copycats. On of the longest running of those was Strange as it seems created by John Hix. Interconnected images and cross-connected single panels would inform the reader of some of the natural oddities and coincidences that exist or existed in real life. Like 'Believe it or Not' the topics would range from scientific to paranormal, with a splash of human and political. The byline of the strip would travel within the Hix family members, from John to Ernest to Elsie, as they either tired or retired from the work. The quality of the strip stayed consistent throughout. The market for Strange as it seems is moderate. Since there were no multi-week connections within the topics, collectors largely look for lots. Premium strips are relegated to the full-size pages that were sporadically produced in the 1930s when the strip would often appear in the magazine section of the sunday paper. | ||||
