Right Around Home
Right Around Home was a comic strip by Dudley Fisher that was distributed by King Features Syndicate from January 16, 1938 to May 2, 1965.
Fisher drew a suburban setting with a focus on one family in that neighborhood, but what made his Sunday strip unique was the format. He employed an elevated down-angle view showing numerous characters in an immense single panel that completely filled an entire Sunday page. Fisher drew Right Around Home until his death on October 6, 1951, after which his assistant, Bob Vittur, managed the strip with assistance from King Features’ bullpen stalwart Stan Randal until its end on May 2, 1965.
The energetic Myrtle and her parents were central figures in the neighborhood. In 1942, King Features asked Fisher to do a daily version of Right Around Home in a conventional comic strip format, and the daily Myrtle began that year. Comics historian Don Markstein described Fisher's family:
After World War II, the Sunday strip was retitled Myrtle—Right Around Home and later Right Around Home with Myrtle (and sometimes simply Myrtle). When Fisher died in 1951, his assistant Bob Vittur drew the strip, which continued until it was dropped in 1964.
Right Around Home was reprinted in the first issue (December 2011) of Russ Cochran's The Sunday Funnies.
