Before the earworm \u201cI\u2019m Just a Bill\u201d educators, the federal government, and journalists all understood the power of visual media to impart information to the masses. George Gallup, in 1930, asserted that \u201cMore adults read the best comic strip in a newspaper, on an average day, than the front-page banner story.\u201d While often relegated to the children\u2019s pages, comics have played an essential function in informing the masses. From informational comic strips like The New Deal in Pictures<\/em> and Uncle Sam at Your Service <\/em>of the 1930s to the contemporary New York City \u201cCivics for All\u201d publications, comics have been an essential form of civics communication throughout American history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
