I always enjoyed the following strips:

Older -- Maggie & Jiggs, Peanuts, Pogo

Deck us all with Boston Charlie, Walla Walla, Wash, and Kalamazoo!

Nora's freezin' on the trolley, Swaller dollar cauliflower Alleygaroo!

Don't we know archaic barrel, Lullaby Lilla Boy, Louisville Lou.

Trolley Molly don't love Harold, Boola Boola Pensacoola Hullabaloo!


Newer --

Calvin & Hobbes, Bloom County, The Far Side, Mutts

As far as "comic books" go --

I was an avid fan of Superman and Action comics, as well as an occasional reader of Spiderman and World's Finest.
