Definition

  • Children, teens, and youth cultures have been central preoccupations of comic strips and their critics since the development of the medium at the end of the 19th century. In the 20th century, there were debates as to whether the stories and images depicted—many of them featuring children—were an antidote or a symptom of a decline in cultural standards and moral values in the wake of a new era of mass culture.
