There was no way that I was going to celebrate Halloween with comic strips and forget about the witch comic strip Broom Hilda! Published for the first time on April 19, 1970, Broom Hilda follows a witch and her friends. She was so popular that she has appeared in cartoon form as well. She was in shorts featured on Archie's TV Funnies (along with other comic strip characters like Nancy, Dick Tracy, and others). She also appeared in Filmation's Fabulous Funnies! This show also had shorts of Nancy, Captain and the kids, Alley Oop, and many more! One interesting note is that Irwin and Grelber (as well some voices in other shorts like Captain Katzenjammer in Captain and the Kids) were voiced by "Skeletor" voice actor Alan Oppenheimer!
So enjoy these classic comic strips, that although are not Halloween do feel like they should be here!
Interesting fact about Alan Oppenheimer ,He is the third cousin of scientist Robert "Death, the destroyer of worlds" Oppenheimer father of the atomic bomb.
