The Gumps

A revival of the classic newspaper strip, this 5-issue series from Lafayette Street Corporation brings the long-running Gumps saga to the comic-book format. Writers and artists Gus Edson and Phil Berube continued the misadventures of the Gump family, extending a legacy of domestic humor that had already delighted readers for decades. While brief, this 1947 series stands as a notable bridge between the strip’s newspaper origins and its enduring place in American comic history.
