GoComics is delighted to re-introduce "Skippy." The legendary comic created by Percy Crosby debuted in 1923 and ran in newspapers until 1945.
Hailed by critics, fellow cartoonists and readers as a "classic," it's easy to see how "Skippy" inspired comics like "Peanuts" and "Calvin and Hobbes." We hope you enjoy this glimpse back in time with one of the most-beloved characters of the mid-20th Century.

This ran more than 20 years?

This one has lost me. I think the taller kid accuses Skippy of bad mouthing him and says he wants to hear compliments when his back is turned. He gets something lobbed at him, but Skippy cheers Pat Toohey, who was an Irish bagpipe player. Am I right? 90 year old slang is hard to decipher.

And what’s a 4-wheel monocle?
