President John F Kennedy said, \"There are three things which are real: God, human folly and laughter. The first two are beyond our comprehension, so we must do what we can with the third.\" Cartoonist Johnny Hart does what he can with the third by bringing laughter to more than 100 million readers worldwide. \"As far back as I can remember, I drew funny pictures which got me in or out of trouble depending on the circumstances,\" recalls the successful comic strip creator.
Hence, in 1958, B.C. was born. Revolving around the \'Cavemen Ages\' B.C. is made up of a cast of prehistoric merrymakers who have refused to grow up. These unique characters offer marvelous fantasies to those who wish they hadn\'t.
