Broadside (comic strip)
 | The topic of this article may not meet Wikipedia's general notability guideline. (June 2016) |
Broadside is a weekly, single-panel comic published in Navy Times from 1986 until March 2020, and written by Jeff Bacon.[1][2] The humor is very specifically directed at United States Navy personnel, and considered nearly incomprehensible by many non-Navy servicepersons. Bacon also drew a second cartoon called Greenside, featuring United States Marine Corps personnel. Broadside continues to be published online.[citation needed]
Broadside cartoons have been printed in numerous government publications, professional papers, and often can be seen adorning the walls of military spaces and cubicles.[citation needed] The cartoons have been displayed at the Navy Art Gallery and the Navy Memorial in Washington, D.C.,[citation needed] and have been published in four books: The Best of Broadside, Book II: the Rest of Broadside, and 20 Years of Broadside, and Underway with Broadside.[3]
