Luther (comic strip)
''Luther'' is an American syndicated newspaper comic strip published from 1969 to 1986, created and produced by cartoonist Brumsic Brandon Jr. The series, about an African-American elementary-school child, was the second mainstream comic strip to star an African-American in the lead role, following ''Dateline: Danger!'' (1968-1974), the first to do so. Another predecessor, ''Wee Pals'' (1965- ), features an African-American among an ensemble cast of different races and ethnicities.
==Publication history==
Brumsic Brandon Jr., who published his first cartoon in 1945, did editorial cartoons before conceiving of a comic strip about inner-city African-American children and a gently satirical theme about the struggle for racial equality.〔( Brumsic Brandon Jr. ) at the Lambiek Comiclopedia. (Archived ) from the original on May 1, 2014.〕 He named his title character, a third-grader, after Civil Rights activist the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
In 1968, the Long Island newspaper ''Newsday'', began syndicating ''Luther'' through its own small syndicate, Newsday Specials, in conjunction Reporters' News Syndicate, an initiative designed to increase minority participation in journalism, In 1970, following the purchase of ''Newsday'' by the Times Mirror, the strip became syndicated widely through the corporation's the Los Angeles Times Syndicate.〔〔
Brumsic's daughter, Barbara Brandon, who would grow up to become the first nationally syndicated female African-American cartoonist,〔 sometimes assisted her father with such tasks as applying Letratone, a transparent sheet with dots that read in print as African-American skin tone.
