Leaping lizards, after 85 years Little Orphan Annie is coming to an end. The comic strip that launched a radio show, a Broadway show and movie versions of the show will cease to run on Sunday, June 13th. The strip that was launched on August 5, 1924 and once ran in over 100 newspapers is only seen in less that 20 today and that is why The Tribune decided to pull the plug on it according to
The NY Daily News.
Although I haven’t read Little Orphan Annie in years, I am going to miss her, Sandy and Daddy Warbucks. So on June 13th put on something red and sing The Sun Will Come Our Tomorrow in her honor.
