Description
Carl Anderson’s classic comic strip character Henry was certainly not the average-looking youngster, with knobby knees, a pencil neck and a bulbous, bald head but, for years, he entertained millions of readers worldwide with his pantomime pranks. Written and drawn by John Liney, who also handled art chores on the daily Henry strip, these stories were done in a Tintin-esque clean-line art style that made them attractive to the younger set, but with writing clever enough to cause the adults to chuckle while reading to their children. A long-overdue look at a forgotten masterpiece.
