Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT According to his creator, the United States Army banning Beetle Bailey helped ensure its popularity. One of the longest-running comic strips in American history, Beetle Bailey has entertained fans for generations. Beetle was created by Mort Walker, drawing on his own experiences in the United States military.
The ban would last for nearly a decade, and in Walker’s estimation, helped boost the strip’s popularity in the states. "Probably the best favor the Army did for me since discharging me was banning Beetle from the Stars and Stripes, the military's newspaper. It became a tempest in a teapot and the ensuing publicity rocketed Beetle's circulation another hundred papers overnight."- Mort Walker
