The Kinder Kids
The Kinder Kids' (Chicago Sunday Tribune, 1906). Art/script: Lyonel Feininger. The 'Famous German artist' was also known for his cubist and Bauhaus paintings. By 1910, the 'Sunday Funnies', the pull-out newspaper comics supplements exemplified by these strips, were a way of life in America.
For all their technical brilliance, the 'Nemo' stories were often emotionally cold. McCay was obviously more interested in his drawing than in his writing, and this was a flaw he never really overcame. The same was also true of his more adult strip, 'The Dreams of a Rarebit Fiend' (1905), which was similarly about a character who has trouble sleeping, but which took the dream/nightmare sequences into often quite horrific territory.
