Beetle Bailey
Definition
- Comic Strip by Mort Walker First appearing in 1950, Beetle Bailey is a humorous comic strip that stars the slacker draftee whose attitudes and adventures came to represent the peacetime draft Army of the 1950s and 1960s. The strip was banned by military newspapers for a time for making fun of officers, but it has lasted more than 50 years and remains one of the most popular comic strips in American newspapers.
