Barnaby is a comic strip which began April 20, 1942, in the newspaper PM and was later syndicated in 64 American newspapers (for a combined circulation of more than 5,500,000). Created by Crockett Johnson, who is best known today for his children's book Harold and the Purple Crayon, the strip featured a cherubic-looking five-year-old and his far-from-cherubic fairy godfather, Jackeen J. O'Malley, a short, cigar-smoking man with four tiny wings. With a distinctive appearance because of its use of typography, the strip had numerous reprints and was adapted into a 1940s stage production. The usually caustic Dorothy Parker had nothing but praise: "I think, and I'm trying to talk calmly, that Barnaby and his friends and oppressors are the most important additions to American Arts and Letters in

  • Barnaby è una striscia a fumetti comico-satirica creata da e pubblicata tra il 1942 e il 1952. La serie debuttò nell'aprile 1942 per la rivista sperimentale newyorkese PM e fu in seguito distribuita dalla Chicago Sun-Times Syndacate.

Spesso definita come "striscia intellettuale", la serie era ricca di riferimenti letterari e di cronaca, e l'autore adottò per essa una particolare tecnica, dattilografando i testi delle nuvolette, il che permetteva di inserire all'interno di esse il 60% circa di testo in più e di dare molto più peso al racconto scritto che a quello (it)
