Description

The Katzenjammer Kids was created by Rudolph Dirks and drawn by Harold H. Knerr for 37 years (1912 to 1949). It debuted December 12, 1897.

Dirks was the first cartoonist to express dialogue in comic characters through the use of speech balloons.

Dirks left the Hearst organization and began a new strip, first titled Hans and Fritz and then The Captain and the Kids. It featured the same characters seen in The Katzenjammer Kids, which was continued by Knerr.
